In this episode, we will discuss about the Wangari Maathai from Kenya. She is considered to one of the world's first environmentalists. A highly educated woman for her time, Wangari recognised the disastrous effects deforestation and global warming was harming her country. And she was smart.
She cleverly figured out a way to combat both gender discrimination and saving the luscious lands of Africa.
Her fight for restoring Kenya to a democracy can't go unnoticed either. Whenever there was any kind of wrongdoing about to happen, Wangari would reach there to protest. At times, it got life threatening.
Join us as we uncover the life of Wangari Maathai and the endless work she did to preserve the environment and to preserve peace.
