Shanice Brown Discussion#7

What topic interests me the most is the situation of women’s having no rights in Afghanistan when the Taliban seized control, Afghanistan became the world’s only country where women cannot seek education. Women are subjected to strict restrictions and oppression, including being banned from school, working outside the home, and even a house without a male escort. Women don’t have rights in Afghanistan and are being forced to cover themselves in public, banned from attending school and work, and facing violence and discrimination. These problems go against the principles of human rights, including the rights to equality, freedom, and dignity. Being able to not get an education because of your gender and religious belief is very unfair to women who have dreams of becoming future doctors, nurses, pilots, and scientists.  The Taliban are not being can’t towards women and look down on women. I truly believe women should have the rights to make decisions on wether they want to be educated and do things that’s truly make them happy without men trying to control them. Everyone should be treated equally. In Afghanistan and worldwide we must work towards promoting and protecting the rights of women and girls.
