This book honors the advocacy of Dr. Wangari Maathai, acclaimed
environmentalist and the first African woman to receive the Nobel
Prize for Peace. Dr. Maathai was a gifted orator who crafted
messages that imagined new possibilities for human agency and
social justice and who inspired action to protect our natural
habitats. This collection explores the various strategies Maathai
employed in her speeches to create memorable images and arguments
for audiences in Kenya and around the world. Specifically, authors
examine Maathai's use of storytelling, her creative use of metaphor
and local cultural knowledge, and her use of sharp social-political
analysis. Authors approach Maathai's rhetoric from both African and
Western ways of knowing.
