Our Fulbright Scholar (FLTA) presents an immersive journey into Swahili language and Kenyan culture. Through engaging visuals and interactive activities, students explore the linguistic nuances of Swahili, its cultural significance, and practical applications. Delving deeper, they discover the diverse traditions, music, cuisine, and festivals that define Kenyan culture. Encouraged to ask questions and participate actively, students leave the presentation with a newfound appreciation for cultural diversity and a broader perspective on the world.
