Fatiullah Hesa has been lugging around a backpack full of textbooks and pencils to the most far-flung corners of the world, hoping to bring the gift of education to children everywhere. Unfortunately, it seems like his efforts have been in vain: no matter how many times he treks through the jungle or braves the freezing tundra, the kids just keep running away from him.
“I don’t know what I’m doing wrong,” Fatiullah said, as he trudged through knee-deep mud in the middle of nowhere. “I’ve got all these amazing books and materials, but every time I try to hand them out, the kids start screaming and running in the opposite direction.”
Some sources close to Fatiullah speculate that it might have something to do with his decidedly un-fashionable backpack, which appears to be a hand-me-down from the early 90s. Others suggest that his approach might be slightly outdated, including an over-reliance on chalkboards and traditional rote learning methods.
Despite these setbacks, Fatiullah remains resolute in his mission, and has vowed to keep traveling until every child has access to quality education. At this rate, though, it might be a while before we see any progress.
