Mary Fanaro, founder of humanitarian fashion brand OmniPeace, and new media veteran/award winning director Adam Cunningham, have released a powerful and thought provoking viral video addressing the crisis in Congo that is responsible for killing over 5.2 million people over the past decade.
With the goal of raising awareness of the use of “conflict minerals” in our everyday electronics, Fanaro’s goal is to educate the American public on how to help stop the violence in Congo. The purchase of conflict minerals - minerals found in all our laptops, computers, cell phones, mp3 players, video game consoles and other electronic appliances - is funding the world’s worst conflict since World War II.
