The video "Let there be hope" was more effective in conveying the story of now for me because it showed me the story and not the effect of the story. Which was the lives of the Ethiopian families. And that’s way more interesting than "Where is the outrage" which only showed the results of the story by showing how many deaths there were related to water.
