Today I stumbled upon one of the most intense videos I've seen in my short life. As a mother of a three month old, I would die, now and here, to spare him any harm. As a result of that emotion, and my empathy for other mothers and their children, I am calling to all of you Huff Po readers to become part of this campaign. To become one. Regardless of your race, religion, sexual orientation, political affiliation... I believe, as a nation, we have the power to unite and claim justice for these children. People will listen.

"KONY 2012 is a film and campaign by Invisible Children that aims to make Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice."

And to the great ones: Angelina Jolie, Mark Zuckerberg, Tim Tebow, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, and all the others who have the power of speech and the money to back it up, three words: Make Kony Famous.
