Brooklyn students showcase int’l savvy for FLOTUS
Meeting Michelle Obama 'life changing'
When two high school students — Annie Willis, from Long Island City and Shavonne Campbell from Brooklyn — met First Lady Michelle Obama at an education summit in DC in June, they asked her to visit the Global Kids headquarters in New York to learn more about their work.
To their surprise, she said yes — and on July 10, the First Lady met with more than 20 students here to learn about their projects in international relations, social justice and policy issues.
She came because the students asked, Ms. Obama told them.
