Unfortunately the terrible situations presented by the ladies in "Girl Rising" did not surprise me. The girls are no doubt subjected to discriminatory behavior including bullying and, in the most severe case, slavery. The story that struck me the most was Senna's from L Rinconada, Peru. Senna had to overcome poverty like all the other girls, but also overcome being forced out of her home and fight for her schooling I believe I favor Rinconada because of all the circumstances she had to overcome. Honestly, the idea of women having to fight for education is baffling to me. It makes me more thankful for the country I live in.
