KONY 2012 Sequel Released [VIDEO]

Invisible Children on Thursday released the sequel to what has become the most-viral video of all time, KONY 2012.

“KONY 2012: Part II

– Beyond Famous” is shorter than the original — 20 minutes vs. the original 30 – and lacks the unique child’s-eye perspective of KONY 2012. Also missing is Jason Russell, the director of the first video, who was detained in San Diego in March a few weeks after KONY 2012 achieved global fame.

The video also addresses criticism of KONY 2012, including those who charged that the Ugandan warlord featured in the video — Joseph Kony — was a spent force. In fact, since the original video was released, Kony’s Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) has abducted 57 more people.

Like the original, the video makes a plea for “Cover The Night,” a New York City-based protest scheduled for April 20. The group’s goal is for viewers to put pressure on leaders in the U.S. and Africa to stop the LRA.
