So glad I finally read not just about the Taliban shooting Malala over her education campaign, but also about her family and her country's history and culture. ( ) Quando o Talibã tomou controle do vale do Swat, uma menina levantou a voz. Malala Yousafzai recusou-se a permanecer em silêncio e lutou pelo seu direito à educação. Mas em 9 de outubro de 2012, uma terça-feira, ela quase pagou o preço com a vida. Malala foi atingida na cabeça por um tiro à queima-roupa dentro do ônibus no qual voltava da escola. Poucos acreditaram que ela sobreviveria. Mas a recuperação milagrosa de Malala a levou em uma viagem extraordinária de um vale remoto no norte do Paquistão para as salas das Nações Unidas em Nova York. Aos dezesseis anos, ela se tornou um símbolo global de protesto pacífico e a candidata mais jovem da história a receber o Prêmio Nobel da Paz. Eu sou Malala é a história de uma família exilada pelo terrorismo global, da luta pelo direito à educação feminina e dos obstáculos à valorização da mulher em uma sociedade que valoriza filhos homens. O livro acompanha a infância da garota no Paquistão, os primeiros anos de vida escolar, as asperezas da vida numa região marcada pela desigualdade social, as belezas do deserto e as trevas da vida sob o Talibã. Escrito em parceria com a jornalista britânica Christina Lamb, este livro é uma janela para a singularidade poderosa de uma menina cheia de brio e talento, mas também para um universo religioso e cultural cheio de interdições e particularidades, muitas vezes incompreendido pelo Ocidente. “Sentar numa cadeira, ler meus livros rodeada pelos meus amigos é um direito meu”, ela diz numa das últimas passagens do livro. A história de Malala renova a crença na capacidade de uma pessoa de inspirar e modificar o mundo. It may not have been THE shot heard ‘round the world, but it certainly was a shot that invoked outrage around the globe when, on October 9, 2012, fifteen-year-old Malala Yousafzai was deliberately shot in the face by the Taliban, who hoped to silence her for good but only amplified her voice. Yousafzai was already known for outspoken views on education for girls when a young man boarded the van taking her and other schoolmates home, asked, “Who is Malala?” and though no one answered, a few looked her way, so he fired three bullets at her. One hit her in the eye socket; two other girls were also injured. Even while in a medically-induced coma in a Pakistani hospital, Malala became the face of Pakistani girls fighting for an education as the Taliban destroyed their schools, demanding purdah, killing and maiming. Yousafzai describes the beautiful Swat Valley in which she grew up and how, when she was ten, the Taliban began eradicating the Pashtun way of life, destroying art, architecture, music, customs, culture. Her father, Ziauddin, was a teacher and a peace activist, and he adored Malala. He spoke out against Taliban leaders and for the right of all children, including girls, to an education. Malala was even more outspoken, and in her early teens, began writing a column for BBC Urdu and blogging about life under the Taliban, including how the intimidation tactics by the Taliban were forcing girls to drop out of school, even before the Taliban announced an outright ban. She made known her dream that every girl in Swat should be allowed to go to school. She gave interviews, speaking out more brazenly against the Taliban, and prizes and awards followed, as did threats against her and her family. Part memoir and part manifesto, I Am Malala, is a well-written narrative of her experiences, woven in with a history of Pakistani politics, the rise of religious extremism in the Swat Valley region, and the ever-changing sociopolitical climate in Pakistan. I highly recommend this book. Malala tells her story clearly and honestly. She provides background of her country, her religion, her family and where she grew up. She shares her dreams and challenges and is positive and hopeful. She does not hate the man that shot her nor does she want revenge. She is passionate and determined to help others and to bring education to boys and girls in her country and in the world. She is an inspiration to all girls, women and all people. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley in Pakistan, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education. On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, when she was fifteen, she almost paid the ultimate price. She was shot in the head at point-blank range while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive. Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she has become a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest nominee ever for the Nobel Peace Prize. This is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, of a father who, himself a school owner, championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of brave parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons. This story will make you believe in the power of one person's voice to inspire change in the world. -- Publisher's description. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
