Jill Biden to Namibian youth: Protect your democracy

WINDHOEK, Namibia (AP) — U.S. first lady Jill Biden has told the young people of Namibia that the democracy their parents and grandparents fought for is now theirs to defend and protect. She also has encouraged them to include women and girls, voices that she said are too often unheard, in the process as they move forward. Biden on Friday addressed more than 1,000 students seated around her in a courtyard at Namibia University of Science and Technology. She is midway through a trip to Africa, including a Kenya visit that begins later Friday.
