A group of teenaged girls was struggling to succeed in the Kibera slums of Nairobi, Kenya until the founders of the Binti Pamoja Center helped them view their lives through the lens of a camera. The girls' self-reflective photos helped them discuss their lives and grow into community leaders.Their stories and their photos are now the subject of a new book, LightBox (Carolina for Kibera/2006). Guest host Jesse Kalisher talks with Emily Verellen, editor of LightBox and co-founder of Binti Pamoja.
