Afghan women fight on

In the troubled east and south of Afghanistan, Taliban are burning girls’ schools and throwing acid in the faces of girl students. Afghan leaders talk about talking to the Taliban, but they “don’t sit with Afghan women and make sure there is no compromise on women’s rights.” However, Karokhail added defiantly, “As far as the Afghan women’s struggle for rights, it is stronger now.”
