WATCH | Abel Marsters: A poem about child rights

Abel Marsters is only 10 years old but he’s already a pretty wise guy. Having moved to Berlin when he was 5, Abel is about to relocate back to the place he was born, New Zealand.

He wrote a poem about child rights for one of his school classes in Berlin and we liked it so much we asked him to record it for Impolitikal. Check it out!

Abel Marsters wants to be a primatologist when he’s older. Evelyn Marsters is his mum!
