One Woman : 90,000 Lives Changed
Aug 14, 2017ctucholke2 rated this title 4.5 out of 5 stars
Loved this book. Dr. Hawa reaches into the darkest memories of her past to share stories that need to be heard. Her strong character is unquestionable, and her boldness to write this book forces the reader to come to grips with the depth of evil that exists in this world. Said evil requires all people to lay aside our desire to be right and powerful to extend compassion and love in order to establish peace. I sincerely hope that her efforts will help a peaceful, stable Somalia to be established in her lifetime so that she can again experience the joy of her homeland. This book caused me to personally consider how I respond to oppression, and to seek to be a part of solutions rather than fueling problems.
