Episode Description

In the shadow of the Taliban's resurgence, Afghanistan stands as a haunting testament to the fragility of progress and the enduring struggle for human rights. Two decades after the U.S.-led intervention following 9/11, the country has come full circle, with the Taliban once again imposing their harsh interpretation of Islamic law, particularly on women and girls. As the world grapples with how to respond to this humanitarian crisis, Ishann Tharoor from the Washington Post raises concern on how Afghan women find themselves trapped in an increasingly suffocating society, their voices silenced and their futures uncertain.
