See Judge Act: Pakistani Women suffer (sexually, acid attacks, beatings) under the hands of their, in- laws, husband or even their own father. Why is this?

By the end of this paper, I would hope the reader truly

For the past few decades women have been thought of less in the society, they havent been able to show the world what they can do.

that Malala had had a strong influence on Pakistani women. When she was shot at the young age of 14 and miraculously survived she didn’t stay silent. She spoke up for women’s rights to education. Since the rise of the Pakistani Taliban, Pakistan has become a pericardial society. I believe that Malala and people like her can bring significant change to women’s current status in Pakistan.

The Culture of Pakistan I am always fascinated with other people's cultures. The New York or Californian culture always amazes me although these states are in the United States. These areas of the nation seem very different than Texas. I do not have any friends that have recently moved here from another culture so, I set out to my neighborhood Stop N Go. The clerks at this convenience store are all from other countries. One clerk whom I have talked to many times, named Sohail Shah, always spoke

adjectives that I would use to describe Malala is: ambitious, courageous, and frank. The reason why I’m using these adjectives to describe Malala is for the following reasons: Ambitious: Malala has made a goal to help girls receive their education (In Pakistan, girls are NOT allowed to receive an education) and showing why it is important to be educated. She has promised to stick with that goal no matter what danger lies in front of her. She will not stop until the rights for girls to receive an education
