Race, Gender & Human Rights Activist; Daughter of Desmond Tutu
The challenges of growing black and female in apartheid South Africa have been the foundation of the Rev. Nontombi Naomi Tutu’s life as an activist for human rights. Those experiences taught her that our whole human family loses when we accept situations of oppression, and how the teaching and preaching hate and division injure us all.
The Rev. Tutu started her public speaking as a college student at Berea College in Kentucky, when she was invited to speak at churches, community groups and colleges and universities about her experiences growing up in apartheid South Africa. Since that time, she has become a much sought-after speaker to groups as varied as business associations, professional conferences, elected officials and church and civic organizations.
