Kenya's minibuses — known as "matatus" — offer a convenient, affordable and colorful way for people to get around. But they also pose safety risks and accessibility issues for many of their passengers, especially women. Bringing a feminist perspective, activist and TED Fellow Naomi Mwaura calls for a revolution in public transportation by making routes transparent, protecting passengers from harassment and paving a career path for women in the industry.

Hello
@Julio Pedro hiee
Those buses look really cool with those side slanting panels and exterior graffiti shell.
And they will look even better on the junk yard with their broken gear trains, rust holes and blown out cylinders since the paint job is the least important part of a functioning transportation system.
Hello
Woman power✊. Keep fighting ladies!!
@Derty Grows-it you most likely just base your opinion on feminism “feminist wrecked” videos on youtube lol. News flash: unless a woman has severe internal misogyny, she’s probably a feminist. A feminist is someone who believes women should be equal to men, and that’s pretty much most women in the world tbh
Hello
@Someone Who Stans Way Too Many Groups based
@Someone Who Stans Way Too Many Groups your name fits you so well lmao, you have to be trolling
The reason most people give up is because they tend to look at how far they still have to go, instead of how far they have come.
Yeahhhhh, Quite true
Hope Kenya’s people are well.

I misread the title of the video and read “Kenya” as “Kanye” and had a very different idea of what this was about
Hello
All my Kenyan stand-up

Hello
This can be inspiring for other problematic sides of the society. Annihilation of an unpleasant system may not work for all time, rather worsen people’s life. Instead, have a positive impact on people’s traditional behaviour so that they can lead to changes gradually.
