Description:

Malalai Joya was named one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people of 2010. An extraordinary young woman raised in the refugee camps of Iran and Pakistan, Joya became a teacher in secret girls’ schools, hiding her books under her burqa so the Taliban couldn’t find them; she helped establish a free medical clinic and orphanage in her impoverished home providence of Farah; and at a constitutional assembly in Kabul, Afghanistan, in 2003, she stood up and denounced her country’s powerful NATO-backed warlords. She was twenty-five years old. Two years later, she became the youngest person elected to Afghanistan’s new Parliament. In 2007, she was suspended from Parliament for her persistent criticism of the warlords and drug barons and their cronies. She was survived four assassination attempts to date, is accompanied at all times by armed guards, and sleeps only in safe houses. 

Joya takes us inside this massively important and insufficiently understood country, shows us the desperate day-to-day situations its remarkable people face at every turn, and recounts some of he many acts of rebellion that are helping to change it. A controversial political figure in one of the most dangerous places on earth, Malalai Joya is a hero of our times. 

by Ziauddin Sardar and Merryl Wyn Davies

note: 1) Digital Read 2) This is one of my personal books, out of my own habit, it tend to highlight, underline, bracket, ect.. things that stick out to me. 3) This is a good book for anyone who wants to know why people actually DO hate america other than the propagandized excuses of “our freedom, democracy, and wealth”.

Description:

American corporations and popular culture affect the lives and infect the indigenous cultures of millions around the world. The foreign policy of the US government, backed by its military strength, has unprecedented global influence now that the USA is the worlds only superpower - its first ‘hyperpower’.

America also exports its value systems, defining what it means to be civilized, rational, developed and democratic - indeed, what it is to be human. Meanwhile, the US itself is impervious to outside influence, and if most Americans think of the rest of the world at all, it is in terms of deeply ingrained cultural stereotypes. 

Many people do hate America, in the Middle East and the developing countries as well as Europe. Ziauddin Sardar and Merryl Wyn Davies consider this hatred in the context of America’s own perception of itself, and provide and important contribution to a debate which needs to be addressed by people of all nations, cultures, religions and political persuasions.
