"As the world clichés their way through the rights of women this International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, please remember the Afghan women confined to the dark chambers of their homes - restrained and banned from education, the outdoors, parks, and life."
"Remember today's brave women of Iran fighting for their fundamental rights to choice, freedom, and life, with the hashtag #WomenLifeFreedom. Time will pass. Peace and equality for all too, will come with the efforts of untamable women. But history will not forget the culprits."
This International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, as the world and its supposed leaders cliche their way past women's true rights, I am reminded of this Afghan proverb:
"If you stay calm during a fire in your neighbor's home, the fire shall reach yours." 4/4
