Amazing infomashion bro

[@elvisleyian6595]

Bro! You are a life saver! I am currently training maasai girls on leadership and one of the role models/ leaders we were looking at was wangari mathai, I have been searching for videos on her story on KZbin but none was elaborate enough and told in a youth appealing way until this night when I came across this video. I actually tried searching for it on your channel last week and today seeing it on my notifications felt like a miracle...I cant wait to show it to the girls tomorrow during our lesson....you are a great story teller it's like watching a movie and I personally learn a lot from your stories. Keeping teaching us! This will definitely be the icing on our cake for us as we finish our leadership training this week!🙂

[@puritybundi8204]

she is my favorite..I can recommend her books: Unbowed and the Challenges of Africa. It will impart knowledge of the girls. Goodluck

Wangari mathaai was a legend. Sad to see how quickly her works have been forgotten and public lands are now being converted to places of architecture instead of the green areas they once were. She must be turning in her grave

Wow, this was refreshing to say the least. It's always a serene environment as you pass through Karura forest breathing in fresh air thank to Wangari Maathai, maybe saa hii it would have been worse being residential area. If one man or woman is fully committed to his/her assignment what an impact would be. The world is we know it would be a paradise. Shout out to women and men resiliently trying to make a change in this world 🗺.

Great story telling skills but there is so much you left out, I was a member of green belt movement back in 2009, when I was in university, we met wangari and she gave us a speech which moved us to bits, that lady was a lioness, my grandmother also was a member of the greenbelt but they had a different name (kikuyu), wangaris ORGANISATION skills were really good, her organisation was even in the villages, you should visit her daughter and another lady who was of Caribbean decent whom they ran the organisation with, she was old but i hope she is still alive
