KENYA - MAASAI WARRIORS FIGHT FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION - CIVILIZATION REACHES KENYA


Show of Force: Social Good
The Maasai Cricket Warriors from Kenya are using their fame and athletic success to campaign against female genital mutilation and promote women's rights.
"When I was young I remember very well my last sister to undergo the cut [FGM], and she was married off," said the team's captain. "When I grew up I started to realize what these people were doing...it was inhuman."‪#‎EndFGM‬
"This is our culture and we shall stand firm against cultural intimidation."
