Malala Yousafzai Research Paper

Improved Essays
If I were Malala Yousafzai’s parents, I would’ve let her speak out about women’s rights and world-wide education, similar to what her parents did. I would’ve done that because the people that were speaking out about those things were adults, people that weren’t in school, as a matter of fact, it’s her education and rights, and furthermore, she should use her voice to speak for others as well. The people that spoke out about the education were adults. The people needed to hear the voice of someone who actually was going to school at that time and tell how they felt. Also, Malala should fight for her education because in her book you could really tell that she loves going to school. The same thing goes for women’s rights, I mean, she is one herself.

Retrieved Reformation is something I would see being interesting because of the fact that it's written by a prisoner and the book is about a robber. The author also went by a pen name for the sake of the story. Mala Yousafzai tells of a struggle of a Talubi women. The story is inspiring and brought the education problem of Talubi to the world's eyes.…

    Malala Yousafzai, female activist, human rights spokeswoman, and a normal girl who enjoys quality time with her siblings, is known for her human rights advocacy for the education of women and children in Northern Pakistan, where the local Taliban banned girls from attending school, to limited their rights little by little.

    The term civil disobedience means “refusal to obey civil laws in an effort to induce change in governmental policy or legislation, characterized by nonviolent means.” ( The Free Dictionary) Theories on this term have been around for a long time. For instance, people like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. took up and preached their own theories on civil disobedience. While Martin Luther King Jr. and Gandhi's theories are still relevant, they are fifty plus years old and seem to lose the interest of kids of the modern age. To some peoples’ dismay there are events happening in the last decade involving civil disobedience.…
