Bono Making Poverty History


I came across this cracking video of Bono talking about the impact of the Making Poverty History campaign. What do you think? Did the MPH campaign have a global footprint? Did it leave its mark? Bono has become the spokesperson for many. I recently saw some of the interview he did for the Willowcreek leadership summit and was amazed by his intelligence and commitment to poverty issues. It is too easy for us to whisper . . 'it's easy for him' . . but we should be taking courage from his example and making changes ourselves and try to reach out to others . . .

That is bizarre. Africa is great but dont you think that we often get the wrong idea about this most amazing place? The people might be materially poor but often have a zest for life and an energy that we are just jealous of. Can people have both money and happiness?
