A GIRL WHO DEMANDED SCHOOL

Kakenya Ntaiya made a deal with her father: She would undergo the traditional Maasai rite of passage of female circumcision if he would let her go to high school. Ntaiya tells the fearless story of continuing on to college, and of working with her village elders to build a school for girls in her community. It’s the educational journey of one that altered the destiny of 125 young women. (Filmed at TEDxMidAtlantic.)

  1. I'm amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I come across a blog that's both equally educative and entertaining, and let me tell you,
    you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about.
    I am very happy that I stumbled across this during my search for something relating to this.
