Malala Day In The Crucible

Malala Day There a lot of things Americans take for granted that we are fortunate to have. We are fortunate enough that we can go to school without getting shot at, sent death threats, or announced as a public enemy. But many people don’t have this luxury and more than 65 million kids don’t have the access to go to school. In the country Pakistan a girl named Malala Yousafzai was shot in the head for promoting education for women across the country. The Taliban justified this by saying it ok try to kill even children according to Islamic scriptures. Another event that is closely related to this from the past is the Salem Witch trials.
In the 1996 Movie the Crucible the Salem Witch Trials are portrayed with a number of key features. These

The Pakistani Taliban, claimed responsibility for the attack, saying that Yousafzai "is the symbol of the infidels and obscenity," adding that if she survived, the group would target her again.

The U.N dubbed it Malala Day. At this event she said, "The terrorists thought they would change my aims and stop my ambitions, but nothing changed in my life except this: weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage was born ... I am not against anyone, neither am I here to speak in terms of personal revenge against the Taliban or any other terrorist group.

While toward the end of the Salem witch trial people felt bad for the hanged people in Pakistan Malala efforts are getting mixed reactions. While many people support her work for education for women, some people condemn it
