A Powerful Noise: Post-Screening




Happy International Women's Day!

On Thursday night I was fortunate enough to see A Powerful Noise! The film profiles three women from three different parts of the world: Hanh of Vietnam, Nada of Bosnia, and Jacqueline (aka “Madame Urbain”) of Mali. Hanh, Nada, and Madame Urbain all run community-based organizations that improve the lives of women. Each woman is so incredibly inspirational!

I often find myself overwhelmed by daily news reports; the world’s problems seem so vast and overwhelming. But after leaving the movie, I felt a renewed sense of optimism. Individual women do have the power to change the world!
