Alex Lin And Malala Yousafzai

It began as an ordinary day in Mingora, Pakistan, for a young girl returning home from school on her school bus. Suddenly, a masked gunman rushed into the bus and shouted, “Who is Malala?” Her friends on the bus looked back at her, and in the blink of an eye she was shot on the left side of her face. This incident was the spark that ignited a call for change in education around the world. Malala Yousafzai was the face of this change. She made significant contributions to female education rights by being an education activist and urging children to speak out and fight for their rights. She forever changed the lives of Pakistani girls who today benefit from free education and resources with numerous schools around their country.

As a teenager, it is easy to feel lost, hide in the crowd, and then lose our voice. Malala Yousafzai inspires us to be courageous. She bravely spoke of her opinion and stood up for her education. Now it’s our turn to voice our opinion about something that we think is right. It is now our turn to take education seriously, just like what Malala

Malala Yousafzai is a women and children activist born in Mingora, Pakistan on July 12th 1997. While growing up, she began advocating for the right to education among girls . Due to her persistence and determination in her activism, on October 9th 2012 Malala was shot on her way home from school by a gunman. She survived the incident and became more passionate towards her fight for education for young females. This incident gave her popularity and in 2013 Malala became nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, which she won in 2014. Malala became the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize (Yousafzai 481). Due to the problems that young females had been facing in Pakistan and worldwide, it was essential to understand her education, the oppression by the Taliban, the devotion towards her religion named Islam and activism on the basis of the novel ‘I Am Malala’.

Malala Yousafzai was a talented and brave young woman who had one goal in life: to get an education and encourage others to do the same. Born in Pakistan, Malala did not grow up with many resources, but she was lucky enough to have a father that shared the same goal as her. At the young age of fifteen, she was shot in the face by the Taliban for standing up for girls’ rights to an education. Although the recovery time was long and hard, the Taliban did not silence her as she continued her campaign. This eventually led her to opening her own school in Yemen and writing the novel I Am Malala. As someone who highly values education and bravery, her story made me interested in learning more about her culture, family, and experiences.

After reading the book ‘’I Am Malala’’ I noticed that she was one of the bravest strong young girls in the world. Malala Yousafzai is a young girl born on July 12, 1997, in the city, Mingora in Pakistan. She fought for something that is she is passionate about. Heroes are people who stand up for something, they are courageous, they are noble and they are loyal to something they stand for. Malala is known as the fifteen-year-old girl who got shot because she fought for women’s rights and education. This young girl named Malala is brave, persistent, and influential.

Malala Yousafzai speaks out after she was shot by the Taliban on the left side of her head for attending school.

The article , “Malala the Powerful”, By Kristin Lewis, describes a girl who got hurt for what she stood up to in the world, so her and other went through lots of courage and challenges.

”Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts.” (Winston Churchill) In times when one’s faith is shaken, standing one’s ground can be difficult. However, in these dire circumstances, some endure and fight in spite of adversity. Malala Yousafzai, survivor of a Taliban shooting, and Sam Houston, hero of San Jacinto, both displayed these traits. They fought without any regards to public opinion; Sam Houston defended his ideologies, whereas Malala fought for her rights, but they both sacrificed their wants for the cause. Despite their differences, Malala Yousafzai and Sam Houston both exhibited their fierce tenacity and courage as they gritted through their struggles.

She survived and today she represents millions of girls across the world. Malala represents how courage comes from all corners of the world.

Teen activists work in different ways. Some teen activists, like Malala Yousufzai used social media to receive attention for her cause.

Some people in the world strive to make the world a better place for everyone. They are conscientious, dedicated, adaptable, and bring light to subjects that people never consider; they spark new ideas. A small amount of these activists are teens, and are still growing up, but they are making lasting effects. Malala Yousafzai, Alex Lin, and Iqbal Masih, have changed the world for the better.

Yousafzai had repeatedly spoken out against the Taliban’s policy of destroying schools and depriving young girls of education in the Swat Valley, Pakistan.
