Letters to malala
Her story is one manifestation of why EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. I ask you, implore you to think for yourself and fight for your education.
Still trying to understand, my children asked, “Why did those men think they needed to kill Malala?” I answered, “because an education is a powerful thing.”

Malala Yousafzai is a 14-year-old Pakistani girl who has become known around the world in recent years for advocating for education (especially for girls) and condemning Taliban subjugation. As a result of her outspokenness she was shot by Taliban in the head and neck on her way to school last Tuesday.
Thankfully, she wasn’t killed; she is now in critical condition at a hospital in England. |
