The video discusses a unique village in Kenya where women live without men, a concept known as Umoja, or unity in Swahili. The village was founded in response to widespread sexual harassment and child marriage, which are deeply ingrained in Kenyan society. The village, known as the "Woman Only Village," was created by women who wanted to escape these traditional practices.
The rules of the village are strict: women who want to join the community must be divorced first and can bring their children with them. The village is a safe haven for women who have escaped early marriages or domestic violence. The women live in a clean and peaceful environment, free from the violence and harassment they experienced in their previous lives.
Despite the isolation from men, the women run the village and raise their children together, forming a strong and supportive community. They also run a school within the village to teach children about respect for women.
The video concludes by emphasizing the importance of unity and support among women, highlighting the power of the word "Umoja." The video invites viewers to subscribe to their channel and share their thoughts on this unique community.
