International: Ben Affleck Writes About Congo for Time

Actor Ben Affleck has recently written his observations of the Democratic Republic of the Congo for Time magazine. Affleck has traveled to the area several times. In his Time submission, he writes: “In the past 10 years alone, millions have died here, and more die each day as a result of the conflict. Most die not from war wounds, but from starvation or disease…That should not be the case in Congo.”
