“Divorced women in Afghanistan confront numerous other challenges beyond finding a life partner — financial difficulties, insecurity, and social stigma.“

Racial discriminations toward women compound to be largely disempowering. Even today, in places like Kenosha, Black girls are still disproportionately criminalized. They are more likely to be neglected and deprived of the resources to fight for their rights within the legal system. Issues like these cannot be approached by tackling gender oppression alone. Instead, they must be treated as an intersection of multiple power structures, considering both sex and race.

The Taliban's Ministry of Higher Education has "suspended" girls' education in all public and private universities. If there is no school, no university, then what will our future be like? My heart is full of pain. I don't see hope or a good future for me, my sisters, and all other young students like me and other girls. 

My child is kept in a hostage state, brainwashed to deny the violence she herself has experienced at his hands, and surrounded by teachers and social workers who have framed her mother as the cause of her pain and her father as her saviour.
