Angelina Atyam

The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
Over the past 17 years an estimated 14,000 children have been kidnapped and forced to fight for the Lord’s Resistance Army in Northern Uganda. Angelina Atyam, an activist for the kidnapped children, shares her efforts to rescue her own daughter from the LRA, along with Sarah Spencer, an advocate for the Women's Commission for Refugee Women and Children.

We are happy to announce that Angelina and her daughter were reunited on July 21, 2004.
