Last night I had the pleasure of moderating the conversation at the Women Empowering Nations’ Houston Screening of “The World They Knew” which is an inspiring documentary that follows the journey of three girls from Tulsa, Oklahoma through North and West Africa. After the reception, I led the Q & A session with WEN Founder and Executive Director Carlisha Williams who is an AMAZING woman. The event was attended by 75 mothers and daughters, philanthropists, filmmakers.

At just 29 years old, Williams has developed educational programs which she presented to international aid organizations, foreign diplomats, and the Gambian government for country-wide implementation. Her work in the Gambia led to her appointment as a United States Goodwill Ambassador to the Republic of the Gambia, ultimately leading her to starting her non-profit organization, Women Empowering Nations.
