Malala Yousufzai

Who is Malala Yousofzai?

Malala is a young 14 year old who lives in Pakistan, she is courageous and strong that she had her voice be heard. She wants to get and education and become a doctor.

Where does Malala live?

Malala lives in SWAT, which is now part of Pakistan.

What are the problems that Malala and her people face each day?

Malala and her people face tortue everyday. Girls aren't allowed to attend school, if they do they become endangered. They are threaten to be killed. Women are restricted to go out, the market, shool, and everywhere. The only thing they can do is stay home. Women are being treated unfairly. Girls are in fear of being killed. A young girl shouldn't fear anything at this age, they should worry about their education but it can't happen.

Concluding Thoughts

- Malala and her father were so overcome with sadness and happiness when they returned to their home in Swat Valley because the school wasn't destroyed as much, it was still there.-Reason why they were happy at the same time. They were saddened to see that the classes were destroyed, and threats were left behind.

- Malala was most excited to see her study books and room when returning home because since she is threatened by many people, she has to be around, moving all the time and doesn't have time to take things with her.

- Malala's study books were so precious to her because she loves to study and wants an education. She has many dreams. Her books symbolize her passion for how she wants to make a change in her country. How she wants to make a change.

- The school reopened on July 13.

- Over 200 schools remained closed.

- Malala now wants to be a Politician instead of a Doctor because she and her father believe she would be a great Politician. She wants to change the rules in her country and make it a better place.


NOTES-

  January 14 is last day for girls to attend school, they al will loose their education.
At the age of 12 Malala had the chance to meet with Richard(I forgot last name) Obama's right hand man.
