Michelle Obama : A passionate, personal case for education


Michelle Obama at Elizabeth G. Anderson School 2009
A passionate, personal case for education (transcript)
Summary
I found this talk in a playlist that is Talk by fierce moms, so the second Sunday, in May, was Mother's Day and all people have a mom. It doesn't matter whether you have a child or not, if you don't love your mother, and if your mother is not alive.
We are such humans who were born by their mom so we have to be grateful that we were born and what we have more and we have to work hard during our whole life.

And then the speaker tells us that the difference between a broken community and a thriving one is the healthy respect between men and women who appreciate the contributions each other makes to society.
The speaker is Michelle Obama who is a wife of  Barack Obama who is a former president of the United State.
Their goal was to devote themselves to closing the gap between the world as it is and the world as it should be.

In Japan, it's difficult for a woman who doesn't have a child to live though I understand from this talk that it doesn't matter. I work hard for Japan and the world. It doesn't matter that I am not a politician.
I'm grateful that I was born and what I have now on Mother's Day.
