From a shepherd girl in Morocco to the Minister of Education of France. (The first woman and the youngest person - at 36 -to ever make French Minister of Education. As well as first Muslim.) While some are too busy shouting #BanMuslims or #BanMoroccans, Najat Belkacem quietly reminds us that immigrants are an asset - and that believing in our children and investing in them with the right character traits and the right education literally means the sky is the limit.

For the record, Najat became determined to succeed in politics when she observed the rise of Le Pen (France's Donald Trump) and the right wing in France. She recalls how at her first fundraiser - as she welcomed guests in and took their coats many mistook her for the house maid. Today, she's called "The New Face of France." The best way to #SilenceTheHaters is to #BeTheChange

Things change in life.

Cool

Congrats to her.
If it were in Nigeria, she would have been married off long time ago ( considering her religion).

I am a muslim, all I knw is peace. I wnt exchange words with u. But if u re willn 2, assalamu alaika, I wnt respond. My father calls for prayer. In Hausa d person dat calls for prayer is called "ladan". "Bn" or "bin" means son of. I'm his son so I call myself "bnladan". Wateva u think about d name is ur own cup of tea. I luv d name and will always call myself binladan. In peace I leave u
