Radical Women, Embracing Tradition

Here is an inspiring lecture in which "Kavita Ramdas of the Global Fund for Women talks about three encounters with powerful women who fight to make the world better—while preserving the traditions that sustain them." On her bio page is this quote: "Being a philanthropist doesn't mean necessarily writing a huge check. It can mean mobilizing your community to start asking questions."

Thanks for sharing. I agree with her- basically that's Chanakya talk, saam, daam, dand bhed - because like she says, one can't choose one's circumstances. And using tradition does work rather well... atleast for immediate relief.
