First Lady Michelle Obama offers her thoughts, prayers and support in the wake of the unconscionable terrorist kidnapping of more than 200 Nigerian girls.
Transcript:
Hello everyone, I'm Michelle Obama, and on this Mother's Day weekend, I want to take a moment to honor all the mothers out there and wish you a Happy Mother's Day.
I also want to speak to you about an issue of great significance to me as a First Lady, and more importantly, as the mother of two young daughters.
Like millions of people across the globe, my husband and I are outraged and heartbroken over the kidnapping of more than 200 Nigerian girls from their school dormitory in the middle of the night.
It's the story of girls like Malala Yousafzai from Pakistan.
Malala spoke out for girls' education in her community...and as a result, she was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman while on a school bus with her classmates.
Because right now, more than 65 million girls worldwide are not in school.
And when more girls attend secondary school, that boosts their country's entire economy.
So today, let us all pray for their safe return... let us hold their families in our hearts during this very difficult time...and let us show just a fraction of their courage in fighting to give every girl on this planet the education that is her birthright.....snip~
