Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai is aware of the viciousness of the Taliban all too effectively. When she was simply 15, she was using residence on a bus from an examination she’d simply taken when a Taliban gunmen entered searching for her out. Upon figuring out herself, Yousafzai was shot by means of her eye, miraculously surviving due to emergency medical therapy. At the time, she’d come underneath fireplace from the Taliban current in her nation for talking towards their actions in direction of feminine kids, which included bombing lady’s colleges so that they’d now not be capable to attend. Now, Yousafzai is standing as much as the group as soon as once more by serving as an govt producer on the Apple TV+ documentary “Bread & Roses.” The film follows three women in the aftermath of Afghanistan’s Taliban insurgency, which occurred in 2021. Holding energy within the nation for over three years, the Afghan Taliban have systematically stripped Afghan girls of their rights, stopping them from receiving an training and even working.

“Afghan women activists are calling it a gender apartheid, that just because of their gender they are oppressed,” stated Yousafzai in a recent interview with “CBS Mornings.”

When requested why the Taliban needs to oppress girls on this approach, Yousafzai stated, “We have been trying to figure out an answer to that for the past 30 years. The Taliban took control in 1996, they have had influence in many parts of Afghanistan and parts of Pakistan as well and this is now repeating in Afghanistan once again where the Taliban have taken control for more than three and a half years. I cannot find any explanation that justifies it to me. How can you stop a girl from her school? They come up with these excuses that it’s culture, it’s religion — there is no culture excuse. The true representatives of that culture are the Afghan women and girls that we see in the documentary.”

Following the try on her life, Yousafzai grew into a global figure within the battle for girls’s rights and towards radicalism, changing into the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize at 17. In elevating her stature all through the world group, Yousafzai thought it meant folks lastly understood the menace the Taliban and figures prefer it pose, however with their resurgence in Afghanistan, she’s not so positive anymore.

“I was so grateful for the support that I received received, but I was only 15 years old when I was attacked by the Taliban and I survived and I admired the support people gave me. What really shook me was the fact that people stand with you once you have survived, but we don’t look at people who are still under a big threat, so it really made me question that,” stated Yousafzai. “Is it all about receiving awards and applause or is it really about actually creating systems of accountability and justice so so that it never happens to anybody. I thought that the praise I was receiving was a true commitment that it should never happen to any girl. That’s exactly what I wanted to hear. That is unfortunately not the reality, but I do want us to change that.”
