Born Without Knees - But Now I'm An Actress | SHAKE MY BEAUTY

THIS DETERMINED woman was born with a defect that left her without knees or calves - but this hasn't stopped her from achieving her dream to become an actress. Ouleymatou Dia, from Dakar, Senegal, stands at just 3ft 6" and claims that living with a disability in Senegal is different and more difficult than in Western countries. The 27-year-old was ‘rejected by society’ and claims her government offers no support in terms of surgeries and accessibility. However, Ouleymatou is a hugely positive person and advocates for inclusivity in Senegal’s filming industry. She was recently featured in a TV show in Senegal and works as a photo model, TV presenter and radio host for a local station.
