Dare to Educate Afghan Girls -
Shabana Basij-Rasikh - Video
Imagine
a country where girls must sneak out to go to school, with deadly consequences
if they get caught learning. This was Afghanistan under the Taliban, and traces
of that danger remain today. 22-year-old Shabana Basij-Rasikh runs a
boarding school for girls in Afghanistan. She celebrates the power of a
family's decision to believe in their daughters -- and tells the story of one
brave father who stood up to local threats.
