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.

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
Education surrounds partially the entire world. Children, women, and men all attend school in America to build knowledge in order to find a job and make money. However, there are some places around the world where only men have access to education. For instance, Pakistan; located in South Asia, numerous amount of girls do not receive the education like other girls in America. This is specifically a problem for children, especially girls in Pakistan because they are not going to school like the girls in America, achieving the same level of education. Instead, they are seen as weak and are restricted from doing many things that men are allowed to do, like playing sports, going to school, participating in public events, and even being seen in public. Malala, a girl from Pakistan, sees the educational inequality where she lives and decides to fight for her educational freedom.

When Malala began speaking she was only 11 and was only trying to speak her mind. The dangerous terrorist group has invaded her home city, and she had the courage to speak up against them expecting no fame. The Taliban enforce strict Islamic law and destroyed or shut down girls' schools preventing women from getting and education. The people living here lived in constant fear but Malala was one of the few brave enough to fight it. Malala chose to continue going to school and even helped lead a group of girls to furthur their education, which is very dangerous considering her circumstances. The radical group soon strikes back, attempting to assassinate a only 15 y/o activist. Malala survived a shot to the head, and dident let that stop her and dident let that stop her from advocating for womens education. She faced many tragities, making sacrafices and even putting her life on the line. Malala overcame many obsticals and those obsticals are one of the reasons she is so globally
As the years go by education us more now accepting to any race or gender etc. The purpose of education is to help people live to be successful in their present and future life. Ruby Bridges and Malala Yousafazi both gave a influence towards education. They both gave an example of their purpose of education and why everyone deserves to have a chance to educate themselves . In addition, they both inspires the realization is that education is for all. When comparing the achievements of Ruby Bridges to those of Malala, education advocates will easily agree that while both made significant impacts on the world, Ruby Bridges’s accomplishments were the most significant and still resonant in the modern educational system.
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.
Malala is a great activist for our world. For example, she has a big part of the inspiration for education. In her homeland, Taliban told girls they weren’t allowed to go to school or dance, play outside, sing etc. She believed girls had much of a right to go to school as boys do. Malala started to go to the boys school as one of her own rights. At this point, the Malala become a target to the Taliban. She was fourteen and the Taliban struck her on the bus with a shot in the head. She was hit in the head but missed a little bit by her skull. She came back strong at sixteen years and showed she will never give up for girls rights. “ I speak with my voice” she would say in an interview. Just because we have feet and hands, knees do not

Raised in an educated family, Malala soon showed her fond for education. Her father worked extensively to promote education in her home town. He successfully built a school that could raise more than 1000 children. Those children did not go to school for knowledge; they went to change their life. They did not want to stay inside their comfort
Malala had many hardships along the way of her crusade here are some challenges. First, “the Taliban began seizing control of Swat. When Pakistan army tried to stop them, the Taliban responded with tremendous violence. They blew up government buildings and murdered police officers.”(9). This is a challenge because the Taliban was taking control and they were making all the girls not be able to go to school and they were making unfair laws. More, they were killing police officers and blowing up buildings. Also, “In 2010, notes began appearing under Malala’s door, ordering her to give up her crusade or else. But she refused to back down, and on October 9, 2012 Taliban gunmen shot her and two others on the school bus.”(8) The text also said, “‘Who is Malala’ one of the men demanded.A feeling of terror filled the bus.

When I first saw “He Named Me Malala”, I recieved a deeper insight into who Malala was, and how she lived. I had presumptions of her being serious and prudish, but after viewing the movie, I saw she was just an average girl. She showed me that you can be anyone, anywhere, and make a difference in the world. Malala has also opened my eyes to the importance of education. After watching the movie, I felt motivated to go make a difference in the world, and to better pursue my education and put more effort into it. Malala has become one of my best role models in my life for activism and education since watching “He Named Me Malala.” I highly recommend others to watch the movie so they can see Malala’s amazing story, so they too can realize the importance of education and that you can make a difference, wherever and whoever you
“They will not stop me. I will get my education if it is in a home, school, or any other place” these are the words of Malala Yousafzai, a Nobel peace prize winner, a human rights activist, and a Pakistani girl, who has traditions, stories, and a unique experience. She was named after Malalai of Maiwand, the greatest heroine of Afghanistan, and she lives up to her name as a heroine for girls education.

Education might not be the cure of the world’s problem but it’s important to be knowledgeable. It’s important to have an education because without it, it makes a person vulnerable to be guided in the wrong direction. Not everyone believes education is important in life and especially for a woman. Malala Yousafzai tells us her story and her fight for education in her book I am Malala. She tells us about her families struggle for the right of education and not just education in general but education for woman. She was raised in Pakistan and its one the counties in which some people believe a woman should not go to school or have freedom. Education was not as easy for her as other girls around the world. Sometimes people don’t take education as a privileged but as a right, but unfortunately it’s not this case everywhere and it wasn’t the case for Malala. She was also able to see by firsthand how illiteracy can be a danger to a person and how others can take advantage of it.
Regarded as not only one of the bravest, but also one of the youngest education activists alive, Malala Yousafzai has dedicated her life to helping children around the world receive quality education. Since childhood, she has spoken out against the Taliban’s ban on girls education and gained global attention in 2009 after a failed attempt on her life. At only 20 years-old, Yousafzai has a plethora of accomplishments and hopes to add many more to her list.
