This is the most inspiration thing that I would ever hear : -When you face the uncertainty of what might be,you can turn it into of the certainty of what will be,you will find yourself in something new and different , adapting and succeeding. And sometimes , you will know that you have left a light on to help you find your way home . -We have planted roots that can never be destroyed
I luv her. She is a gift to this earth and especially those young girls. “But what I was certain of, was that I would not sit passively by and let that road lead me.” Incredible woman
Nine years ago, when I watched her TedTalk , I was very inspired. I contributed the Bengali transcript of that video. Lots of respect to her dream and determination.
I so proud to you my dear compatriot. We really planned some thing, that no one ever can destroy. Now, we need such powerful women to build our country. All the best, wherever you are!! ❤️🇦🇫❤️🇦🇫❤️
🥺🥺🥺it literally made me cry whn the records were burned i hope the day come soon when every girl in afghan will get right to learn and fulfill there dream one day
I cried too. I hope so too and that the Taliban goes extinct as soon as possible. Makes me so uncomfortable knowing how much sadness and suffering the girls and woman are dealing with in this moment😭 WE ARE HUMANS!!
it is really sad and no one out of Afghanistan can imagine how conditions we have. currently I live inside Afghanistan and for each single word that Shabana told here, I cried. my tears are rolling down when I look at my destiny. the obistacles and barriers for both girls and boys are equal right now. I have worked in a bank and since they took control of the country, we are jobless for 10 months. how dark our destiny has been. our generation in Afghanistan the only dreams that have right now, is having a job and support their family. after 16 years of education, I am not able to have a job with 100$ per month salary. we cry day and night that finally what should we do and where to go. I wish I weren't born
I pray that you find peace and that God gives you peace and the highest level of paradise. We cannot imagine what you are going through. Sending you love my brothers and sisters.
Reality:if they all move to another country,that another country's people will say"go back to your own country " Reality:afghan woman (muslim woman)are to western for their own society or too muslim for the west.
No they won't, since the fall of Afghanistan I've heard wonderful stories about how the native Afghan woman would destroy wells that ngos would build and would belittle our female soldiers as we were trying to push western values on them
Sola means peace. God Bless you Lady, your students, your dreams and your country. May the world help this nation to have peace and democracy and education for its women. 9 years Shobana with your girls back in Afghanistan.Prayers for you, this is going to come true.
I dont understand why taliban inslaves women whats in it for them? What is behind this nonsense ? Its hard to believe that problem is in religion how can religion be so unethical isnt faith about ethics?
Because it's not the religion. They are just using it since it's the only thing that unites the tribes over there. Without it, there would be more divisions among them.
Well considering there’s over a billion Muslims in the world and the majority of us don’t share the views of the taliban or other extremist groups then it’s not the religion. It’s hard to believe that the problem is religion because the problem isn’t religion. When the KKK lynched African Americans it wasn’t Christianity that made them act that way, but you can be sure that as “Christians” themselves, ( I don’t see them as Christian’s because of their cruelty) they used Christianity to justify their actions to themselves.
I notice a need to control through religion, beliefs, education, information, fear. Is understanding what ‘you’ know tantamount to physical wealth? Ignore other possibilities. Blame continuously
The taliban were never gone. I dont mean to sound like the downer here but im a realist. The reason the taliban are back amd not the US or nato back government is because the taliban had local rural support and werent corrupt like the Us and nato back government pr the puppet regime they installed same mistake the US made in Vietnam and seemed to not learn you cant rig someone to win when they have no support of the people. Its not wonder the people Afghanistan literally welcomed the taliban without putting up a fight because theyre the afghan people theyre the mujahideen fighting against the non islamic imperial forces trying to change there culture. I know you may not agree with it but again it doesn't matter as an outsider your opinion is useless. We are not colonial powers anymore (i hope we dont go back to those days) we can go in guns ablazing and try to coerce others to be like us and think like us that is very much imperialism and im sure if any of your nations were invaded by a foreign power you would resist them trying to impose there values on you. Its natural to resist. Its about looking at the whole picture amd seeing the world not as black or white of course us westerners think we're right and have high morals. The taliban think that as well both sides of amy conflict think theyre right ,morality is subjective. Also she is clearly not from the vast rural society she is from the city funny how they never address the rural people who mostly supported the taliban.. again you have to look at the whole picture. This talk about educating girls and all this nonsense is a cop out. Btw all the funds that were supposed to be used to build girls schools were quite coincidentally finding there ways in the pockets of politicians and not being invested in schools for girls. Loke wtf is she talking about i have to wonder has she eve been to Afghanistan. Ive seen this crappy schools and the crappy teachers they hire . These teachers are mainly illiterate!!!!!!
Part of it is definitely because the UNODC and the US continued counternarcotics programs which resulted in rural afghan opium farmers taking the side of the Taliban. The Taliban made most of its money for guns off the opium trade because the US wouldn't legitimize the jobs of these workers. Notably, the majority of Afghanistan's rural GDP comes from opium so it's no wonder so many rural communities sided with the Taliban Alternative development programs that focused on eradicating opium and replacing it with wheat and potatos just dispossessed the farmers who didn't meet the criteria for the program making the problem worse. Not sure why the US wouldn't just repurpose the sale of opium into the legal production of painkillers/medicine... But hey let's stick to the War on Drugs right? As a side note, even though morality is *largely* subjective, I do believe cultural universalism has a place here. Beheadings are certainly not moral whether the Taliban thinks so or not and I don't believe it is imperialistic to demand they stop beheading people. The line between imperialism versus reasonable intervention is human rights violations. Unfortunately the West isn't always best equipped to intervene for these violations as they loop in non-related values and ideologies (I.e., it becomes imperialistic). As illustrated by the issues that arise when they push their War on Drugs neoliberal ideologies. The goal should be to end the human rights violations without doing so using imperialism like the U.S. tends to do... A lot. Of course a lot of this stems from how the U.S. constructs morality in the first place (i.e., 'drug producers and sellers are immoral') so to them, they believe the production of opium in itself is a human rights violation, downstream at least. Ironically, it is usually prohibition which creates these human rights violations, but they much rather blame the opium poppy in this case. In short, I don't believe intervention is wrong, but the methodology used for intervention by the West has been massively flawed and needs to be rethought without the emphasis on pushing Western values and ideologies.
@@lucasstanding6510 yup, im afghan and you're right! That other guy is spewing the propaganda that the talibans use, nobody welcomed them with open arms except the islamists. Although corruption was definitely a problem, it's not like the situation got better, the talibans are just out there looting our country.
The west should not waste any more time and money on this. We need to educate and take care of our own people. Vets are committing suicide daily. Nothing against this woman but we tried and failed to help that country.
I haven't seen any single thing good than Islam did on Earth yet, any single thing .... Period ! I haven't seen any single thing good than Religions did on Earth yet, any single thing .... Period !
This is not fallacy of Islam or any religion but its fallacy wrong understanding of religion which n contrast to your claim we have many educated women in Iran.
afghan ex muslim here, don't believe what anyone says about islam being a religion of peace, they dont have the balls neither have they opened a Quran to be knowledgable enough to recognise that all these horrific things that islamists do are the result of islamic teachings.
@@mr.c2485 you're right, as an afghan ex-muslim I know how brainwashed our people are to stay loyal to islam, it's sad they can't recognise that its islam that has been holding us back, it hasn't brought us anything but suffering, Persian people had thousands of years of culture and history before we got conquered by Arabs and continue to be subjugated to their 7th century ideology
Just imagine if the strength and wisdom of the Trump administration was instead calling the shots. She could have stayed and done so much more for so many more girls. The world has become a mess and we will be picking up the pieces for years.
@@TheEvilnala and Biden changed the deal leaving later past Ramadan the holy month and thought that you know leaving behind billions in military equipment was smart
The real culture of Afghanistan supports education of women but on the other hand current culture of Taliban is a foreign culture which has been dictated by KSA to Afghanistan.
I wish you all the good fortune in the world, but I doubt you'll be able to go back. Just go forward and help make life better for woman everywhere else. Afghanistan will only become worse under the Taliban, and they will not be vanquished. It's sad.
Within deep narrative, why this woman is trying to convey that Talibans is not allowing girls to study, despite of the references which whole world is seeing, in the form of university pictures, where there are girls equal to boys. I can't say anything on Talibans' last rule but for now they are allowing every single girl to study in the limitations of Islam, which are also for male muslims in some other ways according to their gender needs.
we dont care about islamic rules, we are sick and tired of living under this backward ideology, shame on the talibans and shame on you for defending their savage ways
Excellent!! Educated young women everywhere is a huge necessity. And thank goodness for President Joe Biden for finally ending the war there in afghanistan.
