Malala is sixteen from Pakistan who decided to stand up for the rights of young women, so that they may have the opportunity to an education. The Taliban regime saw this little girl as a threat and planned to take her out by shooting her in the head . They were unsuccessful at killing her, and that still hasn't stop this teenager from getting her message out. I agree with Malala on the topics of the importance of education for all and peace.
Malala view on education comes from not having it readily available to her i believe. She said " you don't know what you have until its taken''. I know i have the tendency to take school for granted with such thoughts of maybe i wont go, or maybe i wont do a assignment. Malala also feels that school is much deeper than just subjects. She says its teaches us cultural diversity and unity. It teaches us how to work together and become problem solvers. She really gave me perspective on what is taking place in my life right now, and that's higher education.
Peace is also something Malala so desperately wants. She is speaking up for her paradise S wad, Pakistan. Malala describes it as no greater place on earth lush green hill pristine waters that's being torn by terrorism. She often thought what would be her defense when they come for her ( terrorist ). She thought maybe she would threw her shoe. Then she explained that if she threw her shoe that would be making her no better than the attacker. Malala rethought her plan and she said she would explain her ideas and opinions and the peace route would better suite her.
