Kennedy Ng'ang'a, prolific artist from Kenya

Kennedy Ng'ang'a

Dear Readers. Normally, I bring you short stories from my writer friends. This time I'm bringing you something different: a video of the works of Kennedy Ng'ang'a from Mombosa, Kenya. Kennedy has been a quadriplegic for many years due to an accident. Meeting this courageous, prolific artist will bring a smile to your face; his vision of his beloved Africa is so beautiful. Enjoy!

Below the video is a story about his life in Africa. It's very sobering to look at this young man's accomplishments even though he is confined to a wheelchair. This video and article is posted in a magazine called Transforming Today's World Magazine.
