Hey Guys,
Today I watched an interview with Malala. She has done lots of them lately so I choose one that I liked.

I think that Malala makes some very good points about equality and about education such as how the Quran talks about how women and men are equal and how God told the prophet to read. Islam encourages people to learn.
But I don't really understand why she is so famous. There are hundreds of people that get shot on their way to school in Afghanistan, India, the US, and a lot of other places but none of them become famous. I think she has become famous because she did a talk on what happened after she recovered which caused her to be nominated for the Noble Peace Prize.
I also think she talks a lot about women's rights which really grabbed people's attention on the matter and made people think about it more. She also talks about how education is the key to peace.

This is a really well-written summary of Malala's causes. Your mechanics help to make this clear, and it is obvious that you thought about this as you listened to her speech carefully.
ReplyDeleteI am also puzzled as to why she has become so famous. Maybe it is because she is a pretty intriguing individual? Maybe she was the first one to catch the world's eye? At any rate, it is an issue that needs to be addressed throughout the world, and she has become the voice for that issue.
Very good post and comment. Yes, there are many who suffer. It is impressive to us that one voice can speak so loudly for many! You, Zara, have the opportunity to continue to use your voice for much influence in this world that is positive! We need you and the Malala's in our lives! Continue to let your light shine!
