Spirit of Uganda February 2, 2008

Spirit of Uganda features award-winning children of Uganda delivering a jubilant performance of traditional East African dances with quicksilver movement, hypnotic drums and songs of joy. Their exhilarating energy and infectious delight are all the more astounding because they are orphans, who have lost parents to AIDS or civil war. From the lush equatorial country devastated by decades of tragedy, these children of Uganda are truly emissaries of light, raising awareness of Uganda's plight.
