Class Dismissed
Back in 2008, on January 15th, girls in Swat, Pakistan were banned from school and from earning an education.
One of the many being Malala Yousafzai, began taking a stand by blogging her activism through writing. She believes in her rights to have an education and stands up for them
2 Days ago she was shot by people of the Taliban because of her activism.
She's in critical condition now and has had a great deal of security watching over her, even though her father is against it.
Speaking of her father, he is also wanted by the Taliban, so at times he will have to leave his home so he won't draw attention to his family
Now that they have threatened Malala and followed through with that threat, they are now placing another threat on her saying if she doesn't die now, next time she certainly will.
In the Documentary, When Malala and her father returned to their home, they were overcome with sadness and happiness because their home was still in tact but the rest of Swat Valley was ruined.
When Malala returned home, she was most happy about coming back to her books and book bag.
She was happy about this because it gave her hope to keep fighting for her rights to an education.
The school re-opened in July. I believe....
