Pretty f*ing cool

Hundreds of Tanzanian women are determined and empowered to create political change, and they're all running for parliament.
Hundreds of women in Tanzania are running for seats in parliament as well as local authorities, and one of them has her eyes on the presidency in the 30 October general elections. Last week Anna Claudia Senkoro, 43, became the first Tanzanian woman to collect presidential nomination forms from the National Electoral Commission (NEC).
Perhaps we could learn some valuable lessons from these fierce ladies?
