Malala Yousufzai
In the midst of an often dispiriting political campaign season in America, a 14-year-old girl reminds the world of the power of freedom and the costs of advancing it.
Malala Yousufzai is recovering from gunshots to the head and neck.
‘I thought I must be a politician…’
Malala has been speaking publicly for freedom for several years. She well understood the risks she was running for freedom: “I thought that I must be a politician to change our country. There are so many crises in this country…and I want to save my country.”
Her courage is now shared worldwide through 21st century communication technology.
Malala is active in social media as well as an accomplished public speaker. Whether or not she seeks elective office, she is influencing the world through her extraordinary example of courage.
Malala Yousufzai represents the power of 21st century leaders.
How Can You Best Serve?
Malala’s example challenges all of us: How can you best serve?
What are you willing to put your life on the line for?
What are you willing to do assist others who are putting their lives on the line for your core values?
What can you do to give life to her courage, to demonstrate that a murderer’s gun cannot silence freedom?
UPDATE: “Malala Yousafzai, the Girl Shot by the Taliban, Becomes a Global Icon.”
