Today in class we finished watching “God Grew Tired of Us.” I’m sad that the movie ended because I enjoyed watching it every day. The movie ended by saying what the three narrators, Daniel, Panther, and John Paul Dau, did with their lives after the movie ended. John Paul Dau made a non-profit organization to help with the war in Sudan. John Paul Dau also gets reunited with his mother. John Paul Dau dreams to build a medical clinic in his hometown. Daniel has not been lucky enough to locate any of his family members unlike the other two narrators. Panther goes back to Africa to find his girlfriend so he can marry her and go back to the United States. Panther also wants to create a school in Sudan so children can get an education to use the resources that Sudan has to offer. Panther also gets reunited with mother, brother, and sisters. A charity that helps with the war in Sudan is the The John Dau Foundation. The foundation is created by John Paul Dau. The point of the organization is to provide healthcare in the regions were there was war. To provide healthcare, they build and sustain medical clinics and train community health workers.
