When Maathai founded the Green Belt Movement in 1977, she began a vital poor people's environmental movement, focused on the empowerment of women, that soon spread across Africa.  Persevering through run-ins with the Kenyan government and personal losses, and jailed and beaten on numerous occasions, Maathai continued to fight tirelessly to save Kenya's forests and to restore democracy to her beloved country .  Infused with her unique luminosity of spirit, Wangari Maathai's remarkable story of courage, faith, and the power of persistence is destined to inspire generations to come.  aElectronic reproduction.bNew York :cAnchor,d2008.nRequires OverDrive Read (file size: N/A KB) or Adobe Digital Editions (file size: 4070 KB) or Kobo app or compatible Kobo device (file size: N/A KB) or Amazon Kindle (file size: N/A KB). 0aTree planters (Persons)z Kenya v Biography. 0aWomen conservationistsz Kenya v Biography. 0aWomen politiciansz Kenya v Biography. 0aMemoir  0aenvironment  0agovernment harassment  0aGreen Belt Movement1 cOriginalz9780099493099
