Falling in Love

2. I read that article right after I posted this one.

Its wonderful to know that there are some people like this helping women in the midst of all this madness in the Congo.

While the children were truly impressive — both their language skills (some speak Swahili, French and English) and their goals were far reaching (becoming President of Congo or the Minister of the Environment), it was Amani who blew me away. Here is another man whose eyes fill with tears when he discusses the brutalization of women and whenever possible he speaks with conviction about the importance of changing gender roles in this country. He has made the betterment of Congo and women in particular his personal mission. We tell the children that there is no better role model for them than Amani.
