Be there at 6 pm to be a part of the filming <br /> iii. Be there at 7:30 when the Displace Me program begins with speakers. <br /> iv. Be there between 8 and 10 during the Displace Me profile videos. Invisible Children suggests that all press stays through this time because it is the meat of the night that will include the personal testimonies of people in displacement camps and the simulation aspect of the night. Very cool and very moving.<br /> v. Be there at 6 am to watch as the thousands wake up. This is a great option for morning broadcast. <br /><br />ALSO, The morning will be an amazing opportunity to capture art for newspapers, online coverage, TV stations and other media.
