Young Global Leader Teresa Kennedy and 95-year-old Tao Porchon-Lynch
THE BUZZ: It’s been more than two months since 200 Nigerian school girls were kidnapped by the extremist group Boko Haram, and they’re still missing. 95-year-old yoga master and lifelong activist Tao Porchon-Lynch joined World Economic Forum Young Global Leader Teresa Kennedy in calling to #BringBackOurGirls. Tao marched with Mahatma Gandhi twice, as well as with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and worked in the French Resistance with General Charles de Gaulle. She says the abduction of the girls is “despicable in this day and age.”
