Twelve Years Old!


This 12-year-old boy in Egypt has some strong opinions—the result of what seems to be a lot of reading, researching, listening, talking, and thinking. In this video, I felt that I was being introduced to a future world leader.

If you are a parent or teacher, watch this with your kids and talk about how they can become more informed about politics.

If only we all cared this much about our government!

Mid-August Update: as you probably have seen on the news, Egypt is in a state of chaos. Each week seems worse. So many deaths, so much destruction. I hope that the young man in this video is safe and keeping his faith in the power of positive change.
