Abstract:
John Bul Dau was one of the "lost boys of the Sudan" featured in Christopher Quinn's Sundance award-winning documentary, God Grew Tired of Us (2006). In the late 1980s, 27,000 Sudanese "lost boys" marched barefoot for thousands of miles seeking safety from the brutal civil war that raged in the Sudan. Half died from bombing raids and starvation; others sought safe haven in Kenya's Kakuna refugee camp. Recently, the United States opened its borders to some of the "lost boys". Dau speaks about the film that documents the journey of these courageous individuals. Sam, a student at the College of DuPage and one of the lost boys, also spoke.
