Help the Young Girls and Women of the World

Posted on 01 October 2015 by mdepeine

I saw this very inspiring and moving video (documentary) called Half the Sky  http://www.halftheskymovement.org/pages/about-half-the-sky-movement .  This is based on a book by the same name, Half the Sky, written by Nicholas Kristof and his wife Sheryl WuDunn.  They have partnered with various actors and activists to highlight the oppression that hundreds of millios of young girls and women are enduring all over the world.  They look at lack of education, rape, sex trafficking, genital mutilation, murder and other attacks against girls and women.

I couldn’t believe how bad things are all over the world, and also in the US, for girls and women.  Check out the link above and see how you can make a difference.
