Polygamy in Kenyan Marriages with Maureen Onyango

In our first Sunlit Conversation, Juani intern Stacy Wanjohi speaks with our guest Maureen Onyango about the impact of polygamous marriages on women and children in Kenya. Maureen shares with us some of her experiences within a culture where polygamy is a common practice and explains how it influences gender roles within the family. Overall, she hopes to shed light on how marital relationships in Kenya situate an unequal power dynamic between men and women, and that there is a need to empower young women in such situations.
