I came to the UK as an Afghan refugee with no English. Education was - and still is - not an option for girls in Afghanistan. I am proud to say I passed my PhD UCL with no corrections.🥳

This is amazing news!!! Congratulations to the most amazing mentor @ProfFarahKC and to the Folger Shakespeare Library ❤️
