We-day is the BEST
On October 13 , my whole class went to We-Day at Rogers Arena at 8:00 (thats so early am I right?!?!).
So we had to go to school at 7:30 in the morning , but since I live in Burnaby I had to wake up at 6:00 and leave at 6:45 in the morning . But after all that it was so worth it we saw this guy his name was Michael Chikwanine . He took a vow of silence because as a kid he was kidnapped by army rebels.
and was forced to hold a gun and shoot his best friend after . That is why he took a vow of silence.
after that .
We saw the former Russian President that was maybe the sole reason the Cold War ended ( It was not really a war just when two super countries ,USA and Russia , had rivalries and nearly had a nuclear war wit nukes) And we saw the founders of We-Day , Craig and Marc Kielburger, who founded.
We-Day at age 12 they talked about the kids in Africa living in third world countries and poverty .
We also learned 1 in 5 kids in Africa die before their 4th birthday!!! But not every thing was al so sad , Hedley and Down with Webster sang some songs to and Classified sang as well !
