A 28 MINUTE "MUST WATCH"
14 Jul 2012
I don't often pay much attention to mass emails I receive, let alone daily blog posts. They really have to capture my attention. But GOOD.is this week highlighted something really special.
As part of New York's TriBeCa film festival, "Baseball in the Time of Cholera" screened victoriously. it's easily one of the best short films that capture both a story and a global issue that everyone should be aware of. It amazes me to think how many billions of personal stories exist in our world that are yet to be told.
As told by GOOD, David Darg an American aid-workers-turned-filmmaker says "The UN currently spends $800 million per year for peacekeeping. Darg says that $100 million would pay for 90 percent of the sanitation and water infrastructure needed to stem the epidemic. Just $40 million could vaccinate the whole country against cholera."
This is a must watch. #undeny

Re: A 28 MINUTE "MUST WATCH"
28 minutes too intense for words...But I can´t keep myself from a response to that . Petition signed - the least that I can do.
