22 Years From Home
In 1983, after an 11 year hiatus, civil war reignited between northern and southern Sudan. 2 million southern Sudanese were killed. 27,000 children reached refugee camps in Ethiopia. They are the Lost Boys of Sudan. Driven from Ethiopia by rebel forces in 1991, the children fled to Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya. During their one-year march to Kenya, they faced starvation, military assaults, animal attacks, and disease. Fewer than 16,000 survived. This is the story of 1 boy. Kuek Aleu Garang."
