Who Is Malala Who's To Blame?

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.

The article, “Excerpts from Malala the Powerful: The Amazing True Story of a 15-Year-Old Girl who Stood up to a Deadly Terrorist Group” by Kristin Lewis, tells us Malala’s story and shows us how she advocates for children's rights. If the Taliban attacks Malala, she will remain in her position and tell them what they’re doing is wrong because everyone deserves an education. She won't fight with violence, but instead, will use her words against them and be determined to show them how everything they’re doing is wrong. This shows how she has a passion for what she stands up for. Yes, she is targeted by the Taliban, but no, that won't change a thing about her. She will still be the same girl who advocates for children and their rights to be able to receive the education they deserve. With passion and the ability to inspire, she changed the world and the many ways we see

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

I believe she is too young to take on a big risk like this. Issues like this should be resolved by adults, not teenagers. Even though what she is doing is bringing awareness to the problem, I believe risking one of their owns life is not worth it. When it comes to reality schools need a lot of money in order to run successfully, where would all that money come from? The government and the cycle would go back to square one. Her mission is important, but people have different perspectives of the situation and how to solve it. The article quoted, “The Taliban soon took credit for the assassination attempt, saying it was a warning to other girls not to follow Malala’s example.”(Lewis #8) This is important because it shows that even though Malala is trying to help the girls now the Taliban are keeping look out for those who defy them as well.The Taliban will not play around with her or her mission, they are determined to kill her...she’s only 15! Is she causing more harm than good? The conclusion did not provide the solution for this social issue, it made awareness for it which is the start. Malala’s story shows the world how brutal women’s lives are in Pakistan and how it must be stopped. Readers should spread the word about how this issue needs to be solved in order for it to be diminished permanently. Spreading it over social media, could make awareness even bigger. The conclusion did give

In her book Malala writes about her life and the lives of some of her family members as well as the situation that Pakistan was, and still is, in. Malala's story is that of perseverance and strong will. In her book, she does a wonderful job at expressing the idea that perseverance has good outcomes, and

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 Yousafzai’s home town in the Swat Valley of Pakistan is where her journey first takes place where oppression against womens education is enforced by Taliban rule. The Taliban staunchly opposed Malala’s fierce beliefs in the right for women to have an education and they did their best to silence her voice. Malala and the other women in the Swat Valley were forced to obey their oppressive regime and not gain an education. Despite the harsh climate against her Malala spoke up against this tyranny with the faith that she could cause a change for the better. Unfortunately due to this she was singled out and faced severe retaliation. A Taliban gunman stopped her school bus and proclaimed that she must be punished for insulting the

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. That are still happening in this world today. But a lot of what she and others went through is still going on today in Taliban. Malala was a girl who fought for others girls to be in school that affect the world because if the taliban knew the would kill them or hurt them are something like that. when the Taliban came around and stroll the streets she still went to school, but she hid herself and the other children as well. As she was getting on a bus one, day two men walked up and asked for Malala and she got up they shot her. She recovered,

The article, “Malala the Powerful” by Kristin Lewis, describes the roughness of Malala, a Jewish girl, who like many girl Jews, crumbled in the hands of Taliban. Malala was alive when the Taliban took over Pakistan. She and many other girl jews were kicked out of school and forced to follow all these stitched rules. In 2009, Malala took action and started a blog. She talked on T.V shows about how hard life was like and was standing up to the Taliban. In 2010, the Taliban shot Malala in the face but she and many other Jews still survived. Though she lived in rough and tough challenges, Malala show lots of courage trying to stand up to the Taliban and their powerful government.

Malala is considered a hero in our society because she is very persistent in her beliefs. Malala believes that everyone should be able to have equal rights to education because, education is power to grow and succeed in life (Kailash Satyarthi). This shows that in today’s society people value someone who is willing to fight for equality for all races, religions, sexes, and ethnicities. In addition, Malala does show weakness throughout her journey to promote education equality. Malala begins to confront the Taliban, a major terrorist group that controlled Swat Valley. This is a mistake by her because she does not realize the consequences of her rebellious actions for education equality to a well-established terror group that could kill her and her family. This shows that in today’s society, people are not simply portraying a hero as a person who is strong and skillful. Instead the modern society looks for someone who is willing to make a difference that is beneficial to the

In class we discuss several topics that has the same messages coming from Gerda Lerner to others in our history.

I would recommended this book to anyone even if they don’t have anything to do with women’s rights. It is a great book in my

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.
