    I Am Malala Theme

    Being a young, teenage girl in Swat Valley, Pakistan, Malala enjoyed going to school, but the safety and availability of schooling was facing a dearth once the Taliban merged in and began terrorizing schools. One day on the way to school and being held hostage by the Taliban, Malala recollects in her interview that she stood and confidently stated, “Then I would tell him [Talib] how important education is and I even want education for his children as well and I will tell him that’s what I wanted to tell you, now do what you want” (Stewart n.p.). Malala’s love and passion from school extended so far as going into confrontation with the Taliban and risking her life just to ensure and declare her rights and the rights of her fellow, female classmates to education and schooling. Malala’s efforts in expressing feminism and ensuring equal rights for girls in Swat Valley and all over the planet expanded to a point of global attention and international charities and foundations. When asked by John Stewart why she did not wait for political or humanitarian support to cease this conflict, Malala boldly rationalizes, “At that time I said why should I wait for someone else? Why should I be looking to the government, to…

    I Am Malala

    The journey taken by Malala Youzafzai was not an easy one. She was born to an illiterate mother and a hardworking father in the beautiful valley of Swat in Pakistan. She stood up for the right of education for the fellow young girls in Pakistan with full determination and spirit and fought against the Taliban. Her father Ziauddin Yousafzai, an education activist was her greatest inspiration and motivated her to stand up as an advocate for education and freedom. Unlike other Pakistani girls, Malala was not fearful of covering her head with a scarf rather than putting on a burqa. She did not believe in hiding the girls and women behind the curtains and seizing their rights of education and freedom. The Taliban prohibited Pakistani people from listening to music, watching television, women going for shopping, laughing and chatting and most importantly they banned education for girls. Malala bravely stood up for their rights. She started blogging, writing and speaking against Taliban’s inhuman activity.…

This is the legacy of change I have inherited from Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and Mohammed Ali Jinnah. This is the philosophy of nonviolence that I have learned from Gandhi, Bacha Khan and Mother Teresa. And this is the forgiveness that I have learned from my father and from my mother. This is what my soul is telling me: be peaceful and love everyone”. This statement is so multicultural that it touches the hearts of almost everyone who hears and that’s why it’s so awesome. She then goes on to tell about why the Taliban are so afraid of education and how a boy in her schooled answered why they were “they are afraid of this book because they do not know what is written in it”. She then goes on to explain that the Taliban is even ignoring what their very own book, that they use to justify their own actions, says about education. “They think that God is a tiny, little conservative being who would point guns at people's heads just for going to school. These terrorists are misusing the name of Islam for their…
