...started around 11 p.m., when a couple of shirtless guys sprinted down a Southside street banging on a kitchen pot, oblivious to the chill rain of a late-October Chicago night.

More than 90 people—including members of the Harvard community—braved the cold and rain to raise awareness of the so-called “night commuter” children of northern Uganda in Boston’s first-ever “Gulu Walk” on Saturday. “Night commuters” walk all night in order to avoid capture by and abduction into the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA).
