A 16 year old girl, shot by the Taliban for
going to school, stands defiant and delivers an impassioned and inspirational
speech to the United Nations General Assembly. This girl not only represents the face
of feminism in Islam but represents the future of women all over the world.
Education is the key to humanity's future and, as the Dalai Lama once said,
ignorance is one of the major poisons of the mind. Ignorance is the enemy of
the 21st Century. May this day go down in history as the representation of a young girl's courage and determination to forge her own future in a society where the idea is condemned.
