This is a still image of a PSA we filmed weeks before a cyclone tragically thwarted Myanmar. The military has been oppressing the people of Burma for a long time, and it is an eerie coincidence that we're just now seeing the effects on a catastrophic scale. I will post the video again soon -- I had to take it down because it was not yet ready to air. Sorry, it was premature for me to post it in the first place!  

Hey guys,

I just wanted share with you how I feel about the tragic cyclone that recently hit Burma.

The death toll may wind up being something astronomical like 100,000 people (I read this on CNN.com). And the country's government just started accepting aid from other countries (finally!)

My sisters and I recently did a public service announcement, which you can see here, about Burma's political plight. Now, the region needs our help more than ever! You can read more here about our PSA shoot and here on how to help.

It just makes me think: A few months ago I had no idea about the problems of Burma... and now I am simply devastated.

Are you going to do something to help?

xoxo,
Kim

    Kimberly I cannot believe you deleted my comment. I have not bashed you, but told you the PSA was NOT professional and turned out to be a joke. You honestly cannot take an opinion, and people who can’t accept opinions from others have their own insecurity problems. As my grandpa is from Burma himself, this issue is crtical to me because it’s my heritege. I don’t think it was done tastefully at all.
