The Vice Guide to the Congo > PART 1



If there's one thing we love here at Get Low HQ, it's Vice documentaries.  They rock.  I've shown nearly everyone the Vice Guide to Liberia, and the fact they managed to secretly capture enough footage to create a whole documentary INSIDE North Korea is plainly hardcore.

Vice head to the Democratic Republic of Congo to see what the deal is with all the conflict minerals.  The country is rife with strife but also hold 80% of the world's supply of a mineral that is required in nearly every mobile phone and computer.

It's this demand for technology in the modern world which is fuelling the country's violence.

You can watch the whole series HERE.

Vice's journalism is second the none.  Get on this.
