ABOUT ME

http://www.reverbnation.com/americalatinaroadies

Somos narradores. Somos visionarios, trabajadores humanitarios, artistas y empresarios. Somos personas parte de una generación ansiosa para hacer cambio y estamos dispuestos a perseguirlo.

Como una organizacion de no-lucrativa, trabajamos para transformar la apatía en el activismo. Al documentar la vida de las personas que viven en regiones de conflicto y la injusticia, esperamos educar e inspirar a las personas en el mundo a utilizar su voz única para cambiar el mundo. Nuestros medios de comunicación crean una oportunidad para que gente pueda hacerse parate de un movimiento empezando de nivel local que inteligentemente responde a lo que esta pasando en el mundo.

Los enfocamos en el desarollo a largo plazo en regións afectadas por guerra, trabajando directamente con individuos y instituciónes que tienen deseos de alcanzar su máximo potencial. A través de educación y invocaciónes de economia, nos unimos con comunidades afectadas y luchamos para mejorar la calidad de vida de los individuos viviendo en regións de conflicto o pos-conflicto.

We are storytellers. We are visionaries, humanitarians, artists, and entrepreneurs. We are individuals part of a generation eager for change and willing to pursue it.

As a non-profit we work to transform apathy into activism. By documenting the lives of those living in regions of conflict and injustice, we hope to educate and inspire individuals in the world to use their unique voice for change. Our media creates an opportunity for people to become part of a grassroots movement that intelligently responds to what.s happening in the world.

But our work extends beyond our borders. In war-affected regions we focus on long-term development, working directly with individuals and institutions that are eager to realize their full potential. Through education and innovative economic opportunities, we partner with affected communities and strive to improve the quality of life for individuals living in conflict and post-conflict regions.

PHILOSOPHY

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. -Margaret Mead

Being a roadie means eating fast food and sleeping on the floor. It mean mapquest and books on tape, and adventure. A stranger is a friend I haven't met yet. I don't have an address. I am poor but my life is rich.
Being a part of Invisible Children means believing in the power of the underground. Technology has made it so easy to communicate but we are more isolated than ever. People wanna be a part of something. People like me are changed because we are telling the stories of northern Ugandans, and by doing that our stories are intertwined. I am the story, a piece of the peace.
We are coming to you, going on the road again.
Traveling near and far to define what freedom looks like or should like. I choose risk over regret
You get one life, but a million different ways to live it. That's why I work for Invisible Children.

We are working on booking the first international tour an we need your help! All you need to do is find us a place (University, Church, Coffee Shop, whatever) and a audience and we will come screen our Documentary for free! We do this because we want people to be aware of this situation and realize the power they have to change it.
