MALIA OBAMA

Born in Chicago, Malia Obama is the first daughter of ex-American President, Barrack Obama and Michelle Obama. With her popularity growing, Malia Obama spent her formative years as the daughter of the 44th president of the United States – she literally grew up in the public eye. Despite the exposure to media scrutiny, Malia Obama has shown significant strength and confidence, perhaps, she is ready for the bigger challenge.

However young, Malia has exhibited a genuine love for her black race as she continues to engage herself in projects with her mother, Michelle Obama.

In 2016, Michelle and Malia were in Liberia and Morocco to promote the Let Girls Learn peace initiative and delivered a substantive amount of money to 62 million girls lacking formal education. She is a student at Harvard University.
