Where Education Can Kill You
|
On one side of Afghanistan’s battle lines, girls and women flock to schools. Not on the other side though.

|
On one side of Afghanistan’s battle lines, rural girls and women flock to schools, learning to read and write, something denied them for centuries. On the other side, education is off limits to females. Girls shackled by illiteracy and tradition are usually married and mothers by the age of 14. Daring to teach girls in one of the dark zones can cost you your life.
