• The children lost in the Congo conflict

    The conflict in eastern Congo continues. Consider this report by Anita Powell of the Associated Press:
    Rebecca Nyiringindi scanned the sprawling refugee camp in eastern Congo, searching for just one person among the thousands of hungry and homeless. "My mother's name is Alphonsine," the 10-year-old said softly, sucking her thumb. "She's short. She's very dark."
