Future Women's History Month: Malala Yousafzai's Inspiring Courage

FUSE TV - Future Women's History Month: Malala Yousafzai's Inspiring Courage

Fuse is celebrating Women's History Month by looking at a variety of rising forces who are creating Future Women's History before our eyes. Today we are honoring Malala Yousafzai, whose courageous story and push for activism gives women around the world hope.

Yousafzai will be turning 20 in July, but the Pakistan native initially warmed our hearts (and rightfully gained our respect) when she didn't suffer defeat after a Taliban gunman tried to assassinate her in October 2012. But a few years prior to the attempted murder, Yousafzai spoke out against her country not helping girls achieve a proper education. The then 11-year-old activist became a BBC blogger where she anonymously wrote about her terrifying experience living in Pakistan's Swat district. She detailed a typical day under the Taliban in one of her earlier entries,

"I had a terrible dream yesterday with military helicopters and the Taleban. I have had such dreams since the launch of the military operation in Swat. My mother made me breakfast and I went off to school. I was afraid going to school because the Taleban had issued an edict banning all girls from attending schools. Only 11 students attended the class out of 27. The number decreased because of Taleban's edict. My three friends have shifted to Peshawar, Lahore and Rawalpindi with their families after this edict. On my way from school to home I heard a man saying 'I will kill you'. I hastened my pace and after a while I looked back if the man was still coming behind me. But to my utter relief he was talking on his mobile and must have been threatening someone else over the phone."
