I watch House because it's funny and it's the last place I expect to find the White Guy Saves Africa from Genocide and/or Child Soldiers trope.
And then there's episode three of season six. In. Which. That. Happens.
If you are white and well-off and have a guilty conscience, you too can shape the destinies of hundreds of thousands of people in a country your ancestors fucked over and your economic policies continue to fuck over!
Because you care!
There are enough silly Cause Movies propping up this trope. Et tu, House? Et tu?
