After watching: http://learn.humboldt.edu/mod/resource/view.php?inpopup=true&id=33139, I am very glad there are groups in this world that empower minorities to mobilize, be self-independent, and practice equal treatment. Women do two-thirds of the world's work, but only own one percent of the world's property and earn only ten percent of the world's income. I was shocked to hear that the couple in Bangladesh used to treat the husband as king and the wife as servant. The wife only ate the leftovers from the husband and only wore what he gave her. After attending the credit and training at a non-profit program of Uttaran, their lives changed for the better. Through education, the couple in Bangladesh improved their economic status by practicing equality. When women made decisions in Bangladesh, money were usually spent on healthcare, education, and businesses like a mill factory.
