“My dream is to become a doctor so to serve my people and make my parents happy.”
Education is ingrained in our culture. No matter how hard the Taliban try to take that away.

For those who are brave enough to protest against the Taliban’s ban against girls’ & women’s education inside the country, we should all continue to bring awareness to this human rights abuse happening right now.
Keep their voices alive.

Spoke w/ New Arab:
“There is no future for the country without educating both genders. Education for children helps nurture critical thinking, emotional intelligence and acts as a buffer against mental illness.”

There will never be peace & security in Afghanistan until an indigenous grassroots movement to uproot the colonial project happens.
Until then, we’ll continue to witness the destabilization, displacement, exploitation & trauma of our people & lands.

You can’t control anything but your own behavior. Once you realize that, you’re free.
Instead of focusing on the negative, ground your being. Practice daily healthy habits:
-sleep
-exercise
-eat healthy
-connection
-deep breathing
-gratitude
-nature immersion

Beautiful.
Imagine being handed over power of a country & people who embrace education like we do & choosing to ban it for one entire gender.
Don’t ever forget the Taliban have banned education for girls & women.
