Ben Affleck has jetted off to The Congo in efforts of highlighting the suffering of the victims of its Civil War and drawing international attention to the unfortunate people who cannot be igonred.
This is Affleck's fourth trip to The Congo since 2007. In May he filmed a documentary about the war-torn area for Nightline.
Affleck dropped by refugee camps -where 250,000 people are trying to manage- in Eastern Congo and talked to displaced children and parents and took exclusive footage with his own camera.

Ben says: "I’m not an expert in international affairs or diplomacy, but it doesn’t take that to see the tremendous suffering here. It’s not something that we as human beings can, in good conscience, ignore. I’m really glad that more people are paying more attention to Congo now but I’m really saddened that it’s taken this increase in violence to make that happen."

Kudos Ben! Maybe more celebrities will use their status in hopes of helping the unfortunate people who suffer everyday.
