Protesters are risking their lives as the country’s leaders are known for cracking down on any opposition. #afghanistan #university #student #education #women #afghan #afghanwomen #femalestudents #womensrights #womenseducation #schools #righttoeducation #kabul #ghazni #takhar #learning | Brave Afghan Women Are Protesting Against A New Ban On Their Education
