MATERIAL AND INFORMATION FEATURED:

This episode contains a brief explanation of the Movie - Moogai directed by Jon Bell. The storyline depicts lived experiences of a family of the First Nation background. The Visions & Tones does not claim any ownership of that material and we acknowledge the hard work of that production under Jon Bell, and all creative members involved. 

The episode also feature sensitive stories about the rebel group in Uganda called the "Lord's Resistance Army" with the leader - Joseph Kony. The story and the use of name has been done numerous times mainstream media and article writings and has since become subject to debates in communities. Therefore, the use of the founder's name in this episode is for that reason that the case is popular and the identities of few people involved have since been made public knowledge.
