BBC report and documentary, on the plight of poor Afghan fathers forced to sell their children to survive. Except you have to read some way into the article - which is around 2,500 words long - before it becomes clear they are specifically selling their daughters into child marriage and domestic slavery. “If I sell one daughter, I could feed the rest of my children for at least four years,” says one father. Another father, pictured in the article, sold his five-year-old little girl. The framing is extraordinary. Not only because the fact only female children are being sold is presented as unremarkable. But also because the fathers making the decision are presented as the victims - rather than the girls who will actually live with the consequences of it. The fathers’ desperation is real and tragic. But so is the reality that these girls are being treated as commodities.

Afghan women have protested the insulting remarks of a Taliban official who called women “deficient in intellect.” Afghan women protested and changed: —I am a woman doctor. I am not deficient in intellect. —I am a teacher. I am not deficient in intellect. —I am an athlete. I am not deficient in intellect. —I am a woman. I am a human being with equal rights. Afghan Women who once served the country and communities as doctors, teachers, professionals and athletes are now standing against humiliation and discrimination. #AfghanWomen #StandWithAfghanWomen

This is not a simple protest. They wear their former uniforms and remind the world who they were, and who they still are. “I was a doctor.” “I was a police officer.” “I was a teacher.” “I was a university student.” “I was an athlete.” “I was a supporter.” Today, the Taliban have pushed them out of their jobs, education, and public life. Yet these Afghan women members of Women’s Courage Movement continue to raise their voices from a small room in Kabul. They have lost their freedom, but they have not lost their courage. Their voices must be heard. Where is the UN? #WomenCourageMovement #FreeAfghanistan

This image from Nangarhar province is truly Afghanistan💔 A woman once she was teacher now sit for begging and appears to be sick, with an IV drip attached to her, is forced to beg for money and polish men’s shoes on the roadside just to survive her self and family. This is part of the reality for women in Afghanistan today under Taliban group: they can beg, polish men’s shoes, and struggle to survive, but they are denied the right to work, education, healthcare, and even the freedom to raise their voices. Where is the UN? Where is international community? Where is humanity? #LetAfghanGirlsLearn #FreeAfghanWomen

Heartbreaking: The Taliban’s harsh restrictions on Afghan women and girls continue. In a hospital in Takhar province, Taliban authorities have reportedly ordered doctors to pray while wearing the burqa. This is not religion, it is coercion, humiliation, and the systematic stripping away of dignity and basic human rights. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn #WomenFreedom #UN

Why are Afghan women always the ones who suffer? A video from Afghanistan shows women being subjected to brutal violence by Taliban forces, with claims that their hands and legs were broken. Is this humanity? Is this human rights? Where is the world’s voice for Afghan women?

⚠️ #Warning: This video contains distressing content and may be upsetting to viewers. If you see this and believe in humanity, child rights, young girls, and human rights, silence is not an option. When we stay quiet, these crimes happen again and again. We must stand against abuse and exploitation, no matter who the perpetrators are. Why world is silent about the #Epstein and all criminals!!! The videos revealed in the #EpsteinFiles are deeply disturbing. They expose the horrific exploitation of children and the complete failure of powerful systems to protect the innocent. This is not politics. This is not gossip. This is about justice, accountability, and protecting children. Silence protects criminals. Speaking out protects victims.

Afghan woman is crying in unbearable pain. Her voice carries the pain of millions of women in Afghanistan. She says: “The Taliban fired at my heart and at my head because I demanded my rights, my education, and my freedom. They attacked us Afghan women, harassed us, and tried to silence us for raising our voices.” Her tears are not just tears, they are the cries of a nation’s daughters being abandoned by the world. Every tear she sheds tells a story of suffering, fear, and broken dreams. It is heartbreaking to witness women begging for their basic rights while the world remains silent. How much more pain must Afghan women endure before the world finally listens? Where is the United Nations? Where is the international community? Where is the EU? Why are you silent? The silence is heartbreaking. The silence is painful. The silence is dangerous. This silence is enabling normalization. I call on each of you: raise your voice. Stand for humanity. Stand for Afghan women’s rights. Stand for women’s and girls’ education. Stand against gender apartheid in Afghanistan. Silence in the face of oppression is complicity. The women and girls of Afghanistan must not be abandoned.

An 11-year-old Afghan girl, Lina Haidar, has proudly earned her 12th-grade certificate in Germany, breaking national records. In a time when the Taliban bans girls from education in Afghanistan, Afghan girls abroad continue to shine and defy gender apartheid. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

This is the true face of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan، a country that shows no mercy to Afghans. Those who have faced life، threatening danger in Afghanistan and fled the Taliban are denied medical treatment and subjected to abuse by Pakistani military government. Even in government hospitals, they can lose their lives, simply because they are Afghan. In this video, an innocent child cries out: “My father was not treated!” 💔 The grief of this child and their mother speaks volumes. Afghan refugees، women, children, human rights defenders, and journalists، are brutally neglected and mistreated by Pakistani authorities. Government hospitals refuse to provide care. The cruelty and injustice of the Pakistani government directly endanger lives, showing no mercy or humanity whatsoever.

Today, Afghan women inside Afghanistan with all dangerous staged a symbolic protest against the Taliban’s ban on education. Instead of being in classrooms, they continue to face repression, intimidation, and violence. It has been more than 1,800 days since girls were banned from secondary schools, and more than 1,400 days since women were banned from universities. Education is a right, not a crime. Where is the UN? #LetAfghanGirlsLearn #EndGenderApartheid

This is the so-called “justice” of the Taliban beating women with whips. This is a crime, and the world must not remain silent. Where is the United Nations? Where is UN Women? Afghan women are being denied education, work, and dignity yet the global response is absent.
