MalalaYousafzai Little voice

 MalalaYousafzai


It has been an important week for me. I rarely watch television news as it’s too depressing, but on Thursday I tuned in by chance to watch the BBC. I immediately saw images of Pakistanis fill my screen. Not the usual rock hurling Pakistanis, irrationally shouting amidst flaming tyres, but gentle candle-lighting, beautiful Pakistanis with words of love and peace on their lips. It was UN International day of the Girl Child and the BBC chose to illustrate this with a story of what they termed a National Awakening in Pakistan, following the shooting of 14-year-old school girl, Malala Yousafzai. I was delighted at the apparent 24 hour flip from a narrative of “those Pakistanis are so barbaric they shoot their own school girls” to one of hope, resilience, and a more accurate reflection of the millions who reject such an act.Read more Little voice

US bill to award Congressional Gold Medal to Malala reintroduced


WASHINGTON: A legislation to award the prestigious Congressional Gold Medal to Malala Yousufzai, the Pakistani peace activist who was shot in her head by Taliban, has been reintroduced in the US Congress.

Introduced by Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, House Resolution (No 60) calls to award Congressional Gold Medal to Malala in recognition of her devoted service to education, justice and equality in Pakistan.

Malala, who was shot in her head last year by Taliban for her girl education campaign, was discharged from a British hospital on Friday. Noting that Malala is a symbol of hope in a country long beset by violence and despair, the resolution says that she represents the future of Pakistan and is the new face of the country and an advocate for human rights for women.

Jackson-Lee had first introduced the resolution in the 112th Congress on November 13, 2012, and was sponsored by nearly three dozens Congressmen. Since it was not passed by the Congress, it has been re-introduced in the new Congress this week.Read More US bill to award Congressional Gold Medal to Malala reintroduced
