Falling Whistles "Love Speaks" was a success!
Three young Americans discovered a disturbing child solider tactic in the war of the Congo.
Warning: Disturbing Content, Parents Advisory
The young boys who were captured by rebel leaders were forced to walk the front line of the jungle battles. Each boy too young to be able to lift a weapon was given only a whistle. Told they would be shot from behind if they retreated, they marched forward, blowing their 'weapon'.

Every Tribe sold our products at their "Love Speaks" event at Baylor University. A portion of the proceeds went to the mission to raise funds to support these children's art therapy. We discussed potential import of products to the USA for distribution made by parents and children of the war, however the US has a trade embargo against the Congo because of the war.
