Its been on everyone’s lips. Bring back Our Girls. As we rightly turn to our government for answers, my thoughts turned to possible lasting solutions after their return. What stops the perpetrators of this heinous crime from striking again? Or for other sects with similar ideologies to follow suit. How can we stand with courage in the face of such brazen affronts on our rights? How can ensure the safety of our children?
Meet Malala Yousafzai. A young Pakistani who defied the Taliban in Pakistan and demanded that girls be allowed to receive an education.
For her efforts she was shot in the head, in 2012, but luckily survived. Today Malala is the face of bravery in the fight for every woman and girls right to an Education.
She is a Shero because she refused to cower in the face of oppression even when her life was at stake.
