A beautiful example of using the power of Voice in a responsible manner.
12-year-old Eunice Akoth is from Kibera which is one of the most impoverished areas of Kenya. She enthralled the audience at the 2015 Women in the World Summit in New York City with a powerful spoken word performance. Eunice spoke eloquently about her unconquerable dreams for the future: "Every day of my life is a page of my history. Every step that I take is a step to my glorious destiny and so I
dream my dream. It's not where I am but where I'm going that matters. My future has nothing to do with my past or present. The hard times I've had make me stronger and better... and so I dream my dream."
