The Importance Of The Freedom Of Education

Activist, Malala Yousafzai in her book “I Am Malala,” delineates that the Taliban were going around depriving young women from their education and how she stands up and fights for young women and herself to stay and go to school. Malala’s purpose is to exude the idea that education is a basic human right and that no one should be deprived from it. She adopts a sentimental tone in order to get to her audience. In her book she uses many emotional appeals, logical appeals, she uses credibility, and imagery. Malala stood up for what she believed in, she may be inspiring her readers to never give in to something they don’t think is right.

Education is one of the most important contributors to having a successful future. In developed countries such as North America boys and girls are fortunate enough to have access to an unbiased education system. Therefore, allowing children to have countless opportunities. However, in countries like Afghanistan girls are marginalized and neglected the right to learn. Afghanistan is a country of war, where women and girls are often the worst victims. In 2011, Afghanistan was known as the most dangerous place in the world for a girl to be born (Kissane). Malala Yousufzai, a female education activist was also a victim of war. Yousufazi was shot in the head and neck for advocating for girls and their rights to have access to education. Similarly, to Yousufzai many women in Afghanistan stand up for their entitlement to having equality. Those courageous women often become victims of abuse and are often killed. Investing in girls’ education is critical, not only is it life-altering for a girl’s future, but it’s also poses benefits to society. By allowing Afghan girls access to educating we are also promoting better socioeconomic s, a reduction in child marriages, and an improvement in mortality rates.

Malala is one of the bravest women in the world. In A Letter to Malala Yousafzai from School Students the students talk about how they admire what Malala has done. In the letter it states “Malala Yousafzai is one of the inspiration not only for girls but for everyone who has human values and knows the importance of education.” As a child I took education for granted, but then I realized many people are not as privileged as me. Education is a gift to all that we must cherish. Malala has not only changed my views but she has changed views of many other American students. Many students in America do not value education how students value education in other countries. Malala’s fight for education has helped many American students treasure their right to

When you educate a young girl, she has fewer children, she takes better care of her children, she marries at an older age, and she also contributes to her country's economy. Therefore, why is the education of women so greatly underestimated in many parts of the world? This is a question that has caused many individuals to take action against the act of prohibiting a woman the right of receiving an education. To begin with, education enables parents, and the rest of society, to see the value of a girl. As stated in the film Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide, "Educate a girl, and she can change the world around her." Education acts as a safe haven for many young women and as an opportunity of having an advancement

Females are discriminated against, mistreated, and are valued less since women and girls are not allowed to attend school and higher education. There are approximately 35 million girls not enrolled in elementary school. This explains why two-thirds of illiterate people over the age of 15 are females. Malala Yousefszai is an advocate for girls’ education all over the world. We learned that she was shot by the Taliban for standing up for education when we had to watch the video where she was on The Daily Show. Malala said that men don't want women to get an education, because then women would become more powerful. Having an education brings power. Her father was a great encouragement for her because he spoke out

Girls make up more than 54% of the uneducated population and it’s because if women were educated they would understand how unjust their way of living is and would stand up for themselves. Malala Yousafzai from Pakistani stood up for herself and her education and as a result got shot on a bus ride to school one day in October of 2012. But after speaking out and traveling to various seminars to project her knowledge of the conditions of living she was born into to everyone she was awarded the ‘2014 Nobel Peace Prize’ just last year. It makes you wonder how many people are being starved of education and suppressed of a well-deserved

“I don’t mind if I have to sit on the floor at school. All I want is an education,” said Malala Yousafzai, Pakistani activist for female education. In today's society, many people don’t realize how grateful they should be for the education they receive. Even the slightest education is much more than people were receiving just three centuries ago, and even more than people in countries besides the United States of America. In specifics, women and African Americans were once unable to pursue any form of education in the United States, along with many other ethnicities.

Not only in regards to education, but in general seeing as that “ women and children are suffering in many parts of the world in many ways” and believes that the world can combat this with “unity and togetherness.” Additionally, Yousafzai claims to use her platform to act as the voice “of those 66 million girls” who are “deprived of

I am honored to be chosen to pick a speech and read it for the conference. I have chosen Malala Yousafzai’s speech on free education for women and children around the world. In the speech given by Malala Yousafzai on July 12, 2013 at the Youth takeover of the United Nations, she claims that we must take action and help fight for women’s rights and free education for all around the world, and that the acts of terrorism against women and children should be stopped. The speaker establishes the hopefulness for the women and children around the world who lack a basic education and are judged by their race and gender to give hope that they might be able to achieve a free education for all. She wrote this speech to inform the audience about the lack of education for women and children. Malala Yousafzai’s speech is the most moving out of the three choices because the speaker creates a powerful message by using anecdotes, repetition and ethos to convey her overall message to the audience.

Globally women do not have the same chances for an education like other women around the world. Malala Yousafzai is a prime example of women in Pakistan who are not allowed to have a good education like men in her country. As a young child, she defied the Taliban and demanded that all women get a fair education. According to britannica.com Malala Yousafzai was shot in the head by a man that worked for the Taliban; She was shot due to standing up to them because she wanted equal rights for women to have a good

Malala Yousafzai’s is a women’s activist for youth education, but primarily for girls. On July 12th, 2013, she delivered an address at the Youth Takeover of the United Nation. This speech is powerful, eye opening and deserves to be heard. She is addressing two audiences, one being the people that follow her same belief for education, some of those people would be at this convention and the other being the people that disagree with her purpose, like the Taliban. Yousafzai was in 1997, in Mingora, Pakistan, which used to be a popular tourist destination. As of now the region has been taken into control of the Taliban. Her father is also an anti- Taliban activist and educator. She, her father and tons of others just want thing to be like they used to. Where they had a safe neighborhood and didn't have to worry about violence. She delivered a speech riddled with excellent use of rhetoric to convey her argument. Malala’s whole purpose for her fight for education of the youth is so that it will stop future violence, She displays this purpose in her speech by using outward focus, compassion and personal experience to her audiences.

In “I am Malala,” Malala Yousafzai explores the idea that education empowers women to stand up for their rights, so that they can have a positive future.

“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. Despite the cultural traditions of Malala Yousafzai’s community, she has grown as a world leader in spreading world peace throughout the globe, through her challenges, her accomplishments, and her growth in publicity, with her common goal being an education for all girls.

On July 12, 2013, 16-year-old Malala Yousafzai, delivered her first public speech, to the United Nations Youth Takeover, where she persuasively articulated her aspiration to reach out to young, adolescent advocates the deficient nature of education, specifically in regards to women and young children. During Yousafzai’s advocacy for children’s right to education, her spoken ambition was to reach a global audience in hopes of bringing awareness to a troublesome issue. Likewise, throughout the speech, Yousafzai effectively expressed her gratitude to the people who have made an influence in her life, including the champions of the world Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, and Muhammad Ali Jinnah as well as the countless teachers she had who motivated her to persist in further educating herself. Nevertheless, she also commendably reveals through her Nobel Peace Prize Speech that the award is not only for herself, but, consequently, for those “disregarded” children who continually yearn for education on a daily basis. This successfully demonstrates that she is not above those children, but, instead, stands with them. In several illustrations, she conveys the notion that she is not going to stand idly by and witness young girls being denied their rightful education. Accordingly, Yousafzai deliberates, it is moral and upright to fight for what one believes in.

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.
