Description

Dr. Sima Samar, Afghanistans first female vice-president, warns of a looming apartheid-like oppression in Afghanistan under Taliban rule. Despite real gains made from 2001 to 2021, including millions of girls in school and women in parliament, the current situation is dire. Women and girls face severe restrictions, and the world is losing interest. Samar urges global recognition of the old governments diplomats and pressure on the Taliban through womens rights treaties, while holding onto hope for a better future.
