For class, this isn't exactly an assignment but it really got to me and compelled me to write about it and give in how I feel about it, when I heard the story about Malala it really got to me.
This is Malala:
Malala is a girl who tried to start a campaign where she lives about trying to get equality and send women to school and let them have an education because where she lives, inequality is still a huge thing and gender equality is still pretty frowned upon, which I think is crazy but its whatever they do there.
But anyways, where she is she tried starting the campaign to get women their rights that they have in other places and the grown Taliban men there did NOT like what she was doing, they tried to stop her but she wouldn't budge .
So they tried a different approach,
They hunter Malala down to the bus that she was taking one morning, they didn't know what she looked like so they asked everyone on the bus around her which one she was, of course, nobody budged or said anything but somehow they still managed to find out which one she was.
So as soon as they found out who she was they shot her in the head point blank and tried to kill her. Surprisingly that didn't work, Malala received medical treatment and she ended up surviving a bullet shot to the head, and from that point everybody started trying to help her, sharing her story like I am and getting it out there.
From there on, Malala has been a strong women with dealing with what she had went through and also with the support of thousands of people around the world showing their support and giving her a hand.
Just reading this story has had a HUGE impact on how I feel about this and it also makes me furious with the men who tried to kill her just because she was trying to get her well deserved rights as a women and she just wanted to be heard.
Honestly, if I was asked who my role model was, I would say that without a doubt Malala is my new role model! She fought for her rights, was shot for it, survived, and still kept fighting, that is a stronger women than any of the women I have ever met or seen and I wish that only I could be as strong as her one day!
This is a photo of Rosie the Riveter, she was a strong young women during World War 1 or 2, I cant remember but she was also a women who chose to fight for herself and show that she is strong and no matter what people say or do to her, she will keep fighting and show the world that she can do anything she wants and not be taken down and I find that pretty amazing.
Beyonce is honestly one of my favorite famous peoples ever, she is Strong, Beautiful, Determined, Self-Respecting and many other things! She will always be one of my role models as well because she has proven throughout the years that she will fight for what she wants and she will fight HARD. That is something that I would never be able to do, not as well as them atleast. Malala, Rosie, and Beyonce are all self respecting women who I would LOVE to be one day or at least turn out to be one day.
These women are extraordinary and they are amazing and just hard, tough women. They make me want to make myself stronger so that one day, if put in a similar position or situation as they have been, than I can come back fighting twice as hard and do what I want no matter who tries to stop me a put me down.
This story has honestly affected me so much and I hope that while reading what I have wrote (even though its alot I know) that is all affects you in some way and encourages you to come out in some way and show to the world that you care and you are a strong person as well.
WOMEN DESERVE THEIR RIGHTS NO MATTER WHAT COUNTRY.
It shouldn't have to depend on your Sex to determine if you get to go to school or not, you should be allowed to go to school no matter what, you should just instantly be accepted and able.
If you felt anything for this post, please write something of your own, share mine or find a way to show your feelings on the situation.
