The first program in PRI's documentary series, "Against the Odds," is about a student from Somalia: Abass Hassan Mohamed, who managed to get the highest grade in all of northeastern Kenya on his secondary school completion exams, despite having spent much of his life in a Kenyan refugee camp. He will soon begin his junior year at Princeton University, where he is excelling -- just as he has throughout his life.

This Video inspired me wallahy(: WHAT AN AMAZING BOY! Your Video really gave me Hope that EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE and The Future IS IN OUR HANDS.i felt guilt about myself when i compared what people go through everyday and how hard they work just to have a better life. it's just overwhelming for me and if you came this far, i sure believe you can do anything you set into your mind. YOUR FUTURE IS IN YOUR HANDS, AND NEVER LET IT GO. i am very happy for you, i don't know you but i am proud of you(:
