When I walk into 176 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 4: a dark room, I don't look for a light because 177 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 4: I know God is there. So when God tells me 178 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 4: to go preach in Kenya, he said, I got a 179 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 4: message for the women people in Kenya.

My 192 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 4: niece Adria Green was twenty two years ago. Three years ago, 193 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 4: Adria was doing some type of study of broad program 194 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 4: something and she was at Wellesley College and Pearline.

Now, I'm gonna tell you something. You know, 202 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: because you have to go through Johannesburg and then connecting 203 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: you drive down and so uh and uh. When I 204 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: was doing Steve hard Morning Show, they asked us to 205 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: broadcasting Durban and for the life of me, and we're 206 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: talking about two thousand and eight something like that. For 207 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: the life of me, I could not wrap my head 208 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: around that there was the technology there in durbing to broadcasts. 209 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 2: I'm talking about. 210 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: That's how simple My mind had been dumbed down to 211 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: the stereotypes of technology and Africa period, let alone South 212 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: Africa and also South Africa apartheid. So I was dealing 213 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: with a lot of confusion and so and finally when 214 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: I went over there, I was ashamed because it was 215 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: like I landed into Atlanta. Yes road, smooth car, new 216 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: car dealerships, everything was beautiful, black people running things. I 217 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: was really taken aback. But of course you've been to Africa, 218 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 1: You've dealt with these stereo types that I'm supposed to 219 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: be a person, a learned person, educated person, a liberal person. 220 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:56,119 Speaker 1: But still I was saddled with the stereotypes. That's a problem, correct. 221 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: It's a problem for people that don't go. 222 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 4: See I started in two thousand one and I've been 223 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 4: going to Africa every year since two thousand and one. 224 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 3: I go. 225 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 4: So I've created women empowerment programs in Durban and South Africa, 226 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 4: Liberia and Monrovia, Liberia, and now I'm in Ghana and 227 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 4: Sarah Leone and I'm on my way to Mozambique in Tanzania.

So we bought a thousand reusable sanitary pads. 268 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 4: We took them to London to give them a jalo 269 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 4: while she was at the London School of Economics, said, 270 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 4: jaale go do a feasibilities to study in Ghana. See 271 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 4: if that really is a need. Jala's my daughter. 272 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: Okay. 273 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 4: So Jala's came back. She said, Mama, they really need 274 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 4: the pads. So we decided instead of giving them fish, 275 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 4: let's teach them how to fish. So instead of giving 276 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 4: a fish, we created women entrepreneurs who make and sell 277 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 4: reusable sanitary pads. Because what we found is that ninety 278 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 4: five percent of the girls and living in villages in 279 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 4: Ghana miss twenty percent of the of the school of 280 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 4: being out of school due to lack of access to 281 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 4: sanitary pads. So now they don't have to because now 282 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 4: my three hundred and twenty five women are making paths 283 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 4: so girls can go to school. 284 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: So now to get to that point, you had to 285 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 1: create structure. Yes, okay, and you in the country. Okay, 286 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: how did that get set up? 287 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 4: So I set it up by creator. You know, God 288 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 4: sends people. Now he gives you the vision. He will 289 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 4: give you the provision.

When we come back, we're gonna 312 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: continue this conversation with Granny, Reverend doctor Granny who Adrian 313 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: Booth justin making a difference, roll your broad Foundation, Amen, 314 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: speaking of Reverend doctor Adrian Booth Johnson aka Granny, where 315 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: she goes over to Africa. Over here, she's just my 316 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: friend because she's making a difference. And when you make 317 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: a difference some place else, that means you're making a 318 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: difference where you are. That's on a regular basis. In 319 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: this case, three hundred and twenty five women have become 320 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: entrepreneurs in Ghana, West Africa. Now, when you was at 321 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: Coca Cola, that's right, with any programs, any relationships you created, 322 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: and when you exited that you took back over to Africa. 323 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 2: Talk about your exit plan. 324 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 4: Well, Coca Cola was a great company to work for, 325 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 4: and a lot of the marketing skills I learned, I 326 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 4: now teach them to my three hundred and twenty five women. 327 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 4: So I teach them marketing sales, customer service. I teach 328 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 4: them financial literacy because most of my women are uneducated, 329 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 4: and so I teach them. And that's why I go 330 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 4: twice a year. I go once just to teach them. 331 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 4: I go the next time to go and train more women. 332 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 4: So I gather more money, collect more money, and I 333 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 4: go back and forth. Because like I said, if you 334 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 4: want to do you don't ever want to send money 335 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 4: to a country that you have gone.

But how many 389 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,120 Speaker 1: what's that flight journey? What's the flight journey. 390 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 4: From Atlanta to uh Let's say a craw you sometimes 391 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 4: you have to fly through Amsterdam and stop switch planes, 392 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 4: or you go through New York. It's about ten hours, 393 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 4: twelve hour or something like that, fourteen hours. I don't 394 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 4: know something, and just do it. 395 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 3: You just do it. 396 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 4: You just see when God gives you something to do, 397 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 4: you have to do it. See people sometimes they hesitate 398 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 4: and they pull back. But if he gives you something 399 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 4: to do, so it's just like an Isaiah six eight 400 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 4: when he says, I heard the voice of the Lord. 401 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 4: I said, who will go for us?
