THE MAN WHO HAS THE MOST RESPECT FOR WOMEN EVER, MR.
DONALD TRUMP HAS CANCELED MICHELLE OBAMA'S LET GIRLS LEARN
PROGRAM.
THIS IS EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
I JUST WANT TO GIVE
YOU GUYS CONTEXT OF ITS LEGACY.
THEY WERE HOPING SOME OF THAT
WOULD CUSHION THE BLOW OF THE
NEXT ADMINISTRATION.
THIS IS REALLY UNFORTUNATE AND IS JUST
ANOTHER NOTCH AND TRUMP'S BELT.
IS INTERESTING TO ME BECAUSE
EVEN MELANIA TRUMP DURING ONE OF HER SPEECHES SAID SHE KNEW THAT
EDUCATION IS THE MOST POWERFUL WAY TO PROMOTE AND ENSURE
WOMEN'S RIGHTS.
SO WHY WOULD THEY CUT PROGRAMMING THAT DOES THAT?
>> JUST LIKE IVANKA TRUMP SAID IN HER SPEECH THAT HER DAD HAS
SO MUCH RESPECT FOR WOMEN BECAUSE SHE TREATS HER NICE
WHICH MEANS HE TREATS EVERYONE
NICE.
OF COURSE IT IS A TYPICAL MOVE FROM TRUMP, I GUARANTEE
THERE IS SOME SORT OF LET'S STICK INTO OBAMA.
LIKE SOME SORT
OF CHILDISH INSULT YOU WOULD
THROW IN THERE.
I BET HE THINKS THIS WILL ANNOY OBAMA.
>>MILANI SHOULD JUST PUT HER NAME ON IT LIKE SHE DID FOR
MICHELLE'S SPEECH.
>> I THINK THAT IS A GOOD POINT
BECAUSE THEY SAY YOU CAN'T USE
THE NAME OR BRANDING BUT YOU CAN
STILL CONTINUE THE PROJECTS.
INDICATES THAT YOU THEY MIGHT BE
ABLE TO DO
SOMETHING SIMILAR.
>>THE MAIN REASON FOR THIS IS THERE IS STILL A SHOCKING AMOUNT
OF COUNTRIES WHERE WOMEN ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GO TO SCHOOL.
THERE
IS A LOT OF RISK.
>>I THINK YOU BRING UP A GOOD POINT AND I WANT TO MAKE YOU
KNOW MORE ABOUT WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT.
THERE ARE
COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD WERE GIRLS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GO TO
SCHOOL.
BUT GIRLS EDUCATION ACTUALLY HAS A PROFOUND EFFECT
ON NOT ONLY THE WOMEN THAT ATTEND SCHOOL BUT THE ENTIRE
COUNTRY.
YOU MENTIONED HUMAN TRAFFICKING AND SEX TRAFFICKING
ñ IT ALSO INCREASES THE INFANT MORTALITY RATE, AND INCREASES
SEXUALLY-TRANSMITTED DISEASES.
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHEN 10%
MORE WOMEN ATTEND SCHOOL, GDP INCREASES BY 10% ON AVERAGE.
THOSE ARE INSANE STATISTICS.
>>SINCE WOMEN HAVE JOINED THE WORKFORCE ñ
IT IS A CHALLENGE NOW TO RAISE THE GDP BECAUSE OF HOW MANY
WOMEN HAVE JOINED THE WORKFORCE BECAUSE I WAS A SUCH A
VALUABLE THING TO GET THEM TO DO IT.
>> I DID A LITTLE SEARCHING
ONLINE TO FIND OUT THE GENERAL
REACTION.
IT IS WHAT YOU EXPECT FROM CONSERVATIVES.
THE RECENT
ARTICLE I WAS LOOKING AT ñ IF YOU HAVE NOT READ UP AND REALIZE
THAT DONALD TRUMP IS NOT GIVING YOU TAX BREAKS, THIS MYTH THAT
HE IS GIVING BACK TO MIDDLE-CLASS AMERICANS IS STILL
BAFFLING TO ME.
HE'S GOING TO CONTINUE TO CUT THINGS HE
DOESN'T BELIEVE ARE RELEVANT TO HIM.
>>EVEN WITH THIS ONE PROGRAM, IT WAS LIKE MUCH OF THE FUNDING
COMES FROM DONATIONS.
HE IS JUST CUTTING THE DONATIONS.
THE
MESSAGE WE ARE SENDING TWO WOMEN
IN OUR COUNTRY IS THAT THEY JUST DON'T REALLY MATTER.
