The Invisible Children has created a 30-minute video explaining and spreading the word about Kony 2012. This video has gotten over 33 million views, however people started assuming if all the things said were actually true. The campaign has inspired numerous people to put action against Kony, yet the video contained false information.  When said that Kony was in Uganda, he actually has not been present for 6 years. In addition, the LRA has been proven to have at most hundreds of people not thousands. The IC organization has done a great job to raise awareness, but is this the right way to show it? The Invisible Children have been advertising T-shirts, shoes, and bracelets to donate money into this cause, however only 1/3 of the items purchased have been sent. I believe that the money that has been donated is being wasted on making T-shirts and other accessories rather than actually trying to help the cause.
