Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf

President of Liberia. I'm watching broadcast on AJ, interview with Riz Khan, "One on One." Worth a watch.

2. One of my SHEroes.

She is magnificent. Educated. Smart. Strong willed. (The three greatest qualities a woman can have) and she's determined to improve life for Liberians.

She's faced some resistance from members of her country because 1) change is always difficult for some and 2) the fact that she's a woman has hit some folks the wrong way. But she keeps right on keeping on -- reminds me of our own current White House occupant in many ways. :)

Thanks for posting, K. And Merry Christmas! :hi:
