- Since Afghanistan’s fall to the Taliban, girls have been prohibited from attending school beyond sixth grade. SOLA, the School of Leadership Afghanistan, is still teaching its students, though, after a daring evacuation to safety.

Thanks to Rwanda for hosting this girls who will make a difference in the world and Afghanistan.
I’m a lifelong teacher. My heart goes out to these girls and educators with so much love. They are so precious! I was very moved by this report. I hope girls of Afghan will soon be able to have the freedom to learn and live as equals with boys.
As a teacher, how amazing is it to know that Rwanda said "yes" to an entire school that would have needed so much support and resources?!?
The Taliban are the legitimate government of Afghanistan and anyone who breaks the country's rules should be severely dealt with according to the law.
We in the West have no right to interfere in the domestic workings of Afghanistan. We don't like it when Russians and others interfere in our national sovereign rights. No more reporting of what the Taliban are doing and no more reporting of Afghans protesting their governments policies. It is a domestic issue and nothing to do with us.
@@mephistopheleanHuman rights violations aren't simply a "domestic issue".
@@spolch9482 Yes they are, not all human societies are equal as they all have different views on them. A society's government mandates what people have a right to and what they do not have a right to. You would think that freedom of speech and expression are human rights, but we here in Scotland have just been told there is no such thing as freedom of speech and expression as our government has just banned freedom of speech and expression. In some US states, life isn't even a human right, as the state has the right to take your life away if you break certain laws. In Afghanistan women do not have a right to be educated unless the government sanctions it. All this shows that there is nothing we have that cannot be removed and therefore everything is controlled in one way or another by our politicians.
I'm so grateful to the Rwandans for their compassion and support for these young women's education. It's so disappointing to see the heartbreaking regression of Afghanistan society at the hands of the Taliban. May each and every one of those girls be successful!
Taliban love their daughters more than you and want them educated too. But they do not want them educated by foreign ngo groups who have an agenda. They want them taught by afghani Muslim women who will not corrupt them
@@user-rn3bb3dj4p no they don't
@@craigime
Go focus on Seattle drug addicts who’ve become zombies and Compton shootings
@@user-rn3bb3dj4pif that was true, they would ban boys from attending as well. But that is not the case.
Then why did the Taliban close ALL state and private schools over 6th grade for females? Why? They don't want educated females, they want hidden females who have to bow down to the males.
To the girls of SOLA....you are exemplary young women, and so delightful, and dedicated! Much respect to you. Here in America, where children, more often than not, take so much for granted and have little respect for education, I wish that all 3rd graders would be required to watch this interview of you all. (My family was well off when I was born. When I was about 10 years of age, my father took me out to a big farm in Michigan in the summer, where poor laborers worked the fields, living 2 to 3 families in 3-room cinder block houses, with their children! It brought into great clarity for me the privilege my parents hard work had afforded me, and I am now 70 years of age, and have never forgotten or taken it for granted.) You young ladies epitomize the value we all should place on our privilege of education. Blessings to you in your lives.
u bomb the sheet out of them and now u want to bless them??? hypocrite!

@@mephistophelean I expressed my appreciation of education in general. Even going so far as to criticize American children for their lack of appreciation. These young women are (or were) NOT living in Afghanistan when this documentary was made. I offered no observation about government AT ALL, yours OR mine. As far as interference into Afghan "domestic workings," let me state that I did NOT approve of OR want my beloved country going to yours....for any reason. From one Westerner to another, isn't it nice though that we live in complete freedom to learn and teach, not just one train of thought, but of all. God bless.
@@mephistopheleanThe Taliban are by no means the legitimate government of Afghanistan.
This story had me in tears and non-stop crying!!!
This was extremely moving especially when they allowed the girls to go to school only to be told to go home and stay there. How heartbreaking!
I have the most highest respect for those girls, they just want to learn let them learn. I'm proud of all of you girls.! My prayers are with all of you and your families.
Who said that they can’t learn? It’s fake news taliban have no problem with girl’s education

Praying for the girls of Afghanistan & around the world. 🙏🏽✨️
only if u could pray for the afgans that were killed by ur soldiers..
If you could replace Queeran with Bible, you can succeed in that mission instantly. Ex-Muslims are doing wonderful job all over the world. But Afghanistan, Iran, Saudi etc... need real sanctions to pressure them to ease their grip on primitive radical ideologies.
@@user-rr5mq4em5w girls that are left orphaned after heavy indiscriminate bombings! Now they have to beg on the street or work at a young age because her troops went on a rampage and killed everything
This story made me so emotional. Shabana is remarkable, and I hope someone in our government is paying attention. Those girls were incredibly strong and resilient, some as young as ten, yet they understood why their education was so important that they had to leave everything behind. The people of Rwanda showed such understanding and compassion. I truly hope that some day Shabana gets to return that rock to Kabul airport.
“Paying attention” so you want to use force again? Haven’t you learned from the past 20 years it will not work ! Nor will sanctions! Leave these ppl alone, go yourself to Afghanistan and you will see for yourself the reality!
They’re fooling you about the situation, Afghanistan is still under USA control but with different uniform they’re just wearing longer beards and scarves on they’re heads don’t forget it was USA government who out taliban in power and give them all the money and weapons it’s your Tax dollars lol wake up from your sleep
@@user-rn3bb3dj4pEconomic Sanctions.Modern country like the United State and its NATO allies countries.They’ll never touch a foot in Afghanistan again.😢now Afghanistan can survive as a backward country with it Taliban militants crazy rulers again for ever this time around.

Praise God for Rwanda❤️home for Afghan girls.
As a Pakistani I pray to Allah All Mighty the Most Kind to give wisdom to Afghan Govt. To let women study.
Rwandans are incredibly good people. Much love from Kenya ❤
All East Africans (Kenyans, Ugandans, Rwanda and Tanzanians) are incredibly zabardast people.
May God bless us all.
Amen.
Lovely! Just warms the heart! Power to the girls of all ages involved.❤

Shabana, you are a hero. Your courage, attitude, accomplishments and mission to educate Afghan women are an inspiration to all. Thank you and blessings to you, your girls, and to Afghanistan.
Education is important and something some in the west take for granted. Universal rights that we sometimes take for granted. A great look into the lives of these women. Great job on this documentary!
❤
You are a dude, so I'm sorry in advance
In California, it has been difficult for a white girl to get an appointment with a college counselor, unless you are a refugee, and before this influx of Ukrainian women - it is always that we have to have compassion. Can't I just light a candle and go to school?
@@meahdahlgren6537❤ I'm too old for this
What if they say they have Madrasa system as their Education system? How'd you convince them that normal School Education is the best.... They will never give up Islam for School Education as it is against the teachings of Islam to adopt Modern School Education.
@@corpsertag5967fake all education is good education yes madrasa is mandatory but to compete and survive in this modern world all education is good. There is something called fardh kifaya in Islam, some ppl must undertake this task otherwise everyone will be blameworthy, that includes medicine, engineering etc incl female doctors, teachers etc
Shout out to the Brave Women of SOLA! THE BRIGHT FUTURE IS WAITING TO EACH EVERYONE OF YOU . . .
Shabana deserves a nobel prize. If Malala can get it for her crusade for girls education. This is even more heroic and bigger deal.
These are what true heroes are.
This is the news I needed to hear today. Blessed be you all.
Prayers for you young ladies, keep your education going and you ladies are just beautiful people
These girls are fortunate among the Afghani girls. Rwanda is generous to host them.
My heart goes to these brave Afghan women ❤❤😢😢😢
every girl & woman from every nation on earth deserves the right to an education...equality
Few things matter more for society than children and education. Amazing story of courage and hope.
Such brave girls!! Watching them, gives me great hope and confidence that Afghanistani women are capable to reach their dream : to be free!
Fighting the enemy just with education ...EDUCATION IS THE KEY WORD! SOLA...❤❤❤❤❤
Well at the end of the day, if women want to make a change in afghanistan then they are going to have to get violent because since the dawn of humanity, violence was always the sole way to determine who is in charge and how things are run, and even though in a civilized society where violence isn't necessary all the time to achieve a change, it still all stems from violence and who and what ideology or goals will dominate the other. But women aren't likely to want to get violent.
This is a powerful story 😢
This story had me in tears and non-stop crying!!!. Praise God for Rwanda️home for Afghan girls..
Wow my uncle was an ambassador for Rwanda for years after the genocide, funny how things work. Im glad to see the country's doing better and so thankful for their help, we afghan girls know how important education is and how much work we have ahead of us. The uniforms look like afghan clothes, to mix it with Rwandese embroidery was an amazing touch💖
Kids here have no idea what. PRIVILEGE it is to have an education.
Such brave and couragous young women! Shavana is a wonderful foresighted educator.
Well they really aren't brave, its not hard to talk to a camera. And if they were brave they would rally in numbers and in arms and fight back with guns and attempt to make a change, but sadly women don't do that yet they claim to be brave.
My heart breaks but I am awed by their courage.
A wise friend from India once told me the same thing-the one thing that can never be taken from you is your education. At the time I was in my master’s program and upset about a breakup. I have shared the advice with my 5th graders many times and hope to show my next class this story.
What about your faith? Oops...I guess someone could steal your cow. Sadly.
@@TinMan2unot funny
Life is what these girls are and survival is most important for the whole world because they are the real future. This is bigger than a country.
What a brave woman!
These girls are my heroes.
Now this is a course that deserves my contribution.
I am an Afghan girl, 16 years old, and I live in Afghanistan. I also want to go to Rwanda and study my lessons.
i know this is a positive effort in a positive direction but this really broke my wholeeee heart.
A breathtaking story, seeing the determination of the Afghans and the love of the great people of Rwanda, it’s bound to end well.
My hearts goes to these women of these countries and prayed for their freedom and safety.
Excellent feature
You do anything you can. Not everyone will do that. Shes a hero
Excellent coverage. Would have liked to see more of Rwanda’s role.
It's hard for the liberal press to give the black man any actual credit they would rather covet in their own white privileged society. Sadly.
Agreed I guess since I didn't actually waste my time watching polarizing separatist cultural propaganda. Disliked only to get your undivided attention.
God bless the president of Rwanda and the people of Rwanda .
stand up for those lovley girls .the future is getting better and more .salute .加油向上
So proud of Rwanda for opening their doors. Didn’t hear about they on the news.
God bless Rwanda for this
HOW COULD PEOPLE DISKLIKE THIS??
Men
Good for them 👏
I salute these afghan women. I wish American feminist take notice on what these women values .
Brave women and girls. It's unfortunate that the Afghan government fell as swiftly as it did. While the US withdrawal could have been handled better, it's clear that the Afghan government was far too willing to hand over power. The reality is any foreign intervention will end the same without the ppl of the country behind it.
Rwanda is one of the safest countries in Africa and cleanest lol
My sisters and I stopped studying in my land. I enrolled in this Sule school this year, hoping to be accepted
Sound of freedom
So brave and beautiful, outstanding
❤
School in US should play these videos for them to watch and learn
Wow they knew every country .!!these girls are SO smart . Amazing im kinda ashamed at my lack of knowledge . After seeing this and their thirst to get an education .
0:01: 📚 The decision to withdraw troops from Afghanistan has led to a deep crisis, with millions facing famine and the economy in shambles.
5:21: 📚 A school in Afghanistan empowers girls through education and leadership training.
9:46: 🔥 In the chaos of the Taliban takeover in Kabul, students and staff of Sola school had to make a sudden and dangerous escape, leaving behind their records which were burned to protect their identities.
14:45: 😢 A group of students and teachers were caught in a crowded and chaotic situation while trying to reach the airport in Afghanistan. They faced suffocation, shootings, and separation from loved ones. Eventually, they were able to evacuate and find safety.
19:11: 💔 Afghan girls in Rwanda are receiving a formal education while being separated from their families, but the news from Afghanistan is causing them pain.
25:13: 💔 The Taliban's previous rule in Afghanistan prevented girls from receiving an education, but now Sola is working to educate Afghan girls and empower them to be future leaders.
Recap by Tammy AI
Gut wrenching to watch.
Is Sola only for those who are under grade nine?
I am in grade twelve, is it possible if I apply?
Anyone knows please let me know.
Thanks.
May God be with all
Thank God for the home for Afghan girls in Rwanda.
Beautiful story. Too bad nothing will change in Afghanistan
unless another country steps in again
@craigime no need. Time for Uncle Sam to fix the problems at home first
i have this conversation with this rwandan fam, please dont forget we were also once refugees, here we are back in ruanda you well go back home but for the time being welcome home to rwandan .
I was band education since I was lil I guided by a teacher who told me to listening to news and radio and books that I use to take from an American woman who taought me English I was a kid when we lost contact I lost the only way to learn after 21 years here iam in college and I still have problems with ppl who wants me to stay at home .
Your English is very good so you've clearly learned a lot over the years😊
@@vickythefist7062 Thank you .I'm still struggling to obtain my degree .however, it won't putme down .
Education is precious. Nobody can take it away from you. Each and every child should be entitled to an education. The Taliban are afraid of women.
This is beautiful, but I'm seeing them living comfortably in Rwanda, while the black kids in Rwanda are suffering and hungry, many have never even seen a swimming pool.
Well Done SOLA❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎
I feel so bad for those young ladies that can't get out. They literally have no future. They have no men that will fight for them to have a future.
I'm sure they are there, trapped like the families of some of these girls. Surely they were/are not the only ones who wanted the best for their daughters. And the school continues to grow because the demand does exist.
I served in Afghanistan in the American military for a year and saw the horrors the innocent suffered. There were babies and young children with limbs amputated in the military hospital. They stared at me with expressions of shock and total incomprehension. Why did they deserve this? It was one of the most unconscionable crimes of this century for the United States to abandon the Afghan people to the Taliban. Both Trump and Biden deserve to burn in hell and be vilified forever in history for this betrayal. I respect and wish the best for the staff and all the students of this school. I really hope that someday you will take back your country from the Taliban. Many people worked very hard to give democracy a chance there. Please do not let that be in vain just because of a few evil, corrupt politicians and an utterly ignorant, uneducated, stupid people in America. Please become more educated than the Americans so that someday you might guide America back to a moral path.
I understand subjective experiences can change one's view even if distorted in essence of the holistic view, but you need to understand Afghanistan does not as a whole islamic population want a liberal puppet government installed the same way you would not want the opposite of that in your country.
In fact, Obama used more drones and bombings than any other and he should be held responsible.
I know you will probably never change your stances due to the liberal west sending you to westernize and secularize, and support the liberal puppet government on an islamic population where you and others in the mix experienced tragedies due to yours and your soldier friends actions that is not all on you but those who sent you.
But you need to understand the first point here I made regardless of your subjective experiences. Go and re-read it.

Beautiful girls
If the men of Afghanistan aren't willing to fight for the rights of their women why should young Western men do it, again?
It was hopeless. Afghanistan is a divided country. There is not a country per se - more of 7 or 8 tribes trying to coexist. The Koran is the only glue that holds the country together. Taliban mullahs are like TikTok influencers holding sway over an ignorant populace.
Women should take up arms 50/50 right?
Because it is the right thing to do. Glad there are many men who disagree with you and are trying to protect abortion rights, etc. in the US.
@@brianag9726 if it's the right thing to do why aren't western feminist's lining up to go fight the Taliban? Sending a bunch of expendable young men to die, no problem. Going and risking their own lives? Nah.
because america lied
We are not in the stone age, i pray you can educate the males in your society
It is really something. How, the keep bringing in people who are sporting image and boxes of pat famous people in the same roll and positions. This woman must be related to Barbara Wallets. I have thought this for decades.
Wtf are you talking about?
In Islam, women have a right to seek knowledge and an education. What Taliban srw doung has absolutely nothing to do with Islam. The leaders and Islamic scholars of Pakistan , Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Turkey, United Arab emirates, Qatar, Egypt and many other countries all sent out messages on social media condemning that Taliban are refusing girls education and closing down girls school. Sayung the girls and women have a right to education in Islam.
Who would yank a scarf off a girl’s head? What’s to become of all those little kids who wanted to leave. But didn’t get rescued?
What about widows & orphans?
what about them?

Asking the 7th poorest country to educate all people equally that also happened to be conservative and just defeated 2 superpowers, while the international community is in active economic war with said country, is the equivalent of starving people then blame them for eating unhealthy.

Taliban pls change your idea..u need to.improve the life of Afghans...pls b kind to woman. Let the girls go to school..Let them get education....build the infrastructure..hospitals...school.
..build up good tourism.. u may good revenue from tourism..people will get work n can earn..pls b polite..

They are very adamant about following the rules of Islam and the word if God.
I think the SOLA foundation is a way for U.S to keep eyes on what's happening in Afghanistan. Keep in mind Afghanistan borders Iran. There has been some interest in going to w@r with Iran in recent years.
Do most Afghans prefer the rule of the Taliban or want an independent state? Afghani says if there is anyone
Thank you Jesus for sending your missionaries to us and now we are enjoying your peace and freedom.Hail Jesus the king of kings and of peace and love for all mankind.
What do you think taliban running schools for? Engineers, doctors, ... 😂😂😂
Islam says education is a key to success our prophet Muhammad PBH said even if you have to go abroad for education just go and your self educated but I don’t where is these taliban getting their education about Islam they are making their own rules that’s wrong may Allah protect all these Muslims in Afghanistan and give them freedom to achieve whatever they want to do Ameen these Taliban need to be educate them to know what really Islam says 😢
source?
@@craigime it’s in the book of Hadiths
@@banonasar164 women in afghanistan can get islamic education, there are islamic institutions for women. I have no idea what you are talking about.
And tell me one women who went abroad by herself to study alone in first 300 years of islam?
@@banonasar164 you don't know do you.!
A lot of these sayings of the prophet that Muslims like to quote end up being either just folk tales or the lowest grade of hadeeth.
If you are talking about the one that says "seek knowledge ,even as far as china" , please know that it is classified as Da'if, that means weak, likely fabricated.
Gut wrenching, when will women rise up and stop letting their sons and brothers have so much power and control!!?? I don’t mean just in Afghanistan either. ❤
I feel bad for them in those heavy clothes swimming… 😭😭😭😭

Why would they want to return if life is so awful. How can they get a job as a Dr if they were never suppose to be educated??????
Ig Afghanistan is a member of NATO how can The otan never did anything when The Taliban invade Afghanistan after the US Left?
Afghanistan is not a member of NATO..
USA should have Afghanistan alone instead going their for opium they were not interested in people of Afghanistan they destroy that country and left in the hands of Taliban they don’t even know Islam properly Allah never said close your women in the house don’t educate them there are boundaries women have to obey it’s Allah’s message but Taliban are other extreme it was a beautiful country America should never interfere in that country
Freedom for all countries which are suffering from radical Islam.
FYI, Mullahs in Iran were completely against female education too but people fought for it.
Now, instead of solving the main problem : Taliban, the plan is relocating talented females. 😔
what else can they do? how exactly are they gonna "solve the main problem"?
