On this day, a visit to a former village turned into a most difficult affair. Without going into detail at this time, it will suffice to note that this village now lacks a school funded by the foundation. The mood has changed and cooperation is lacking.
In the middle of it all, she stands with a bravery rare in any environment.
To her left, boys are making noises. To her right, a few older boys have gathered, some are helpful while some are more obstructive.
She returns for her portrait, remembering last year's visit with a smile. She stands in front of me on a chair for over five minutes. Men stop by asking us to stop, boys walk behind her trying to get in the frame of the camera.
