"My father was one of the first Baha'is in Kenya. Members of the Baha'i community, teachers, first came to Kenya at the beginning of the 1950s, and my father was among the first who joined," she said.
"Thus the family was introduced to the faith. Indeed, there are many connections. At one level, art is one way of communication, and Baha'is are encouraged to use these methods. That includes song, dance, plays, and so on. The arts can advance the themes of peace and equality," she added.
