Today in class we finished watching the movie. During the movie, I saw that John Bul Dau organized walks to raise awareness for the war going on in Sudan. They also all got together for a Lost Boys reunion in Michigan, and John was disappointed that some of the boys were forgetting their culture. Most of them are from the Dinka tribe, which is a large group in Africa and they are very tall. Also, John was reunited with his mother after 17 years of separation. At the end of the movie, Panther gets married to his girlfriend, gets his bachelor's degree, was reunited with his mom and brother, and is hoping to open a school up in Sudan. John continues to support his family, he has a bachelor's degree, he has a nonprofit organization for Sudan, and plans to open a medical clinic in Sudan. While Daniel works at Job Corp and is getting his degree, and unfortunately he has not been able to find any family.
One thing Mr. Schick asked us was what can we do to help, so I found John Bul Dau's organization online at http://johndaufoundation.org/. We can use this website for donations and other ways. Another idea that I had which was very unlikely but I would defiently enjoy would be going over spring break or some other time to a Lost Boys refugee camp and helping there, I know for a fact that at some point in my life I will do this.
