That afternoon, as we all sat on the floor in a circle listening to a story, I bowed my head. When I raised my head, this little girl leaned over to lay her head on the little boy's lap. He very gently lifted his arm to receive her. I call this photo 'The Age of Innocence."
551 days since the Taliban BANNED girls from going to school. Afghanistan is ONLY country in the world that has made education a crime for teenage girls.
These empty girls' classrooms symbolize a grave violation of human rights. The world's silence will not be forgotten.
MPS will be checking roads in the morning on Friday, February 24 to determine conditions. It is best to plan on both in school and out of school scenarios at this time.
