"The Bravest Girl in the World" Response


In Upfront Magazine, “The Bravest Girl in the World,” it talks about how a girl named Malala Yousafzai that was just 11 years old in Pakistan was brave enough to speak about the need for girls’ education in Pakistan and was shot in the head for it (she survived). It makes me think about how there isn’t always justice in the world for everyone.
            In Pakistan, “the Taliban imposed their harsh interpretation of Islamic law on the region, banning music, dance, and many personal freedoms, including schooling for girls…the Taliban used violence—including public beatings, torture, and beheadings—to spread fear and enforce their edicts.” People in Pakistan weren’t allowed to have justice or opinions. Yousafzai and her father stood up for their justice and what they believed in.
            In conclusion, from this article I learned that justice doesn’t always come easy to everyone. And that sometimes you have to fight for what you believe in.
