  • Awra Amba - Ethiopian community (documentary)
     OP - May 19, 2013, 12:49 AM
    Awra Amba is a gender equal rural community in Ethiopia.
    Quote from wikipedia: "The village is unique not only for its attitudes toward gender, religion, and education, but for the social security it provides its members in need. There are formal committees to provide services which include: education, to receive guests, to take care of patients, the elderly and children, and community health. They have established a literacy campaign for adults, a library, and a preschool. Despite living in a culture which practice early marriage, the people of Awra Amba have decided girls should not marry only after reaching the age of 18, and boys at or above 22.[1]"

    This documentary has everything in it. A cool guy with a very green hat, people who put rocks in piles and some guys drinking tea.

    `But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
     `Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad.  You're mad.'
     `How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
     `You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'
