Frases de Malala Yousafzai

Malala Yousafzai é uma ativista paquistanesa. Foi a pessoa mais nova a ser laureada com um prémio Nobel. É conhecida principalmente pela defesa dos direitos humanos das mulheres e do acesso à educação na sua região natal do vale do Swat na província de Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, no nordeste do Paquistão, onde os talibãs locais impedem as jovens de frequentar a escola. Desde então, o ativismo de Malala tornou-se um movimento internacional.

A família de Malala gere uma cadeia de escolas na região. No início de 2009, quando tinha 11-12 anos de idade, Malala escreveu para a BBC um blog sob pseudónimo, no qual detalhava o seu cotidiano durante a ocupação talibã, as tentativas destes em controlar o vale e os seus pontos de vista sobre a promoção da educação para as jovens no vale do Swat. No verão seguinte, o New York Times publicou um documentário sobre o cotidiano de Malala à medida que o exército paquistanês intervinha na região. A popularidade de Malala aumentou consideravelmente, dando entrevistas na imprensa e na televisão e sendo nomeada para o prémio internacional da Criança pelo ativista sul-africano Desmond Tutu.

Na tarde de 9 de outubro de 2012, Malala entrou numa van escolar na província de Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Um homem armado chamou-a pelo nome, apontou-lhe uma pistola e disparou três tiros. Uma das balas atingiu o lado esquerdo da testa e percorreu o interior da pele, ao longo da face e até ao ombro. Nos dias que se seguiram ao ataque, Malala manteve-se inconsciente e em estado grave. Quando a sua condição clínica melhorou foi transferida para um hospital em Birmingham na Inglaterra. Em 12 de outubro, um grupo de 50 clérigos islâmicos paquistaneses emitiu uma fátua contra os homens que a tentaram matar, mas os talibãs reiteraram a sua intenção de matar Malala . A tentativa de assassinato desencadeou um movimento de apoio nacional e internacional. A Deutsche Welle escreveu em 2013 que Malala se tornou "a mais famosa adolescente em todo o mundo". O enviado especial das Nações Unidas para a educação global, Gordon Brown, lançou uma petição da ONU em nome de Malala com o slogan I am Malala , exigindo que todas as crianças do mundo estivessem inscritas em escolas até ao fim de 2015, petição que impulsionou a retificação da primeira lei de direito à educação no Paquistão.Em 29 de abril de 2013, Malala foi capa da revista Time e considerada uma das 100 pessoas mais influentes do mundo. Em 12 de julho do mesmo ano, Malala discursou na sede da Organização das Nações Unidas, pedindo acesso universal à educação. Malala foi ainda homenageada com o prémio Sakharov de 2013. Em fevereiro de 2014, foi nomeada para o World Children's Prize na Suécia. Em 10 de outubro, foi anunciada a atribuição do Nobel da Paz a Malala pela sua luta contra a repressão de crianças e jovens e pelo direito de todas as crianças à educação. Com apenas 17 anos, Malala foi a mais jovem laureada com o Nobel. Malala partilhou o Nobel com Kailash Satyarthi, um ativista indiano dos direitos das crianças. Wikipedia

Statement to 32nd Congress of Pakistani Marxists, March 2013
Contexto: First of all I’d like to thank The Struggle and the IMT for giving me a chance to speak last year at their Summer Marxist School in Swat and also for introducing me to Marxism and Socialism. I just want to say that in terms of education, as well as other problems in Pakistan, it is high time that we did something to tackle them ourselves. It’s important to take the initiative. We cannot wait around for any one else to come and do it. Why are we waiting for someone else to come and fix things? Why aren’t we doing it ourselves? I would like to send my heartfelt greetings to the congress. I am convinced Socialism is the only answer and I urge all comrades to take this struggle to a victorious conclusion. Only this will free us from the chains of bigotry and exploitation.

“I think that it's really an early age… I would feel proud, when I would work for education, when I would have done something, when I would be feeling confident to tell people, 'Yes! I have built that school; I have done that teachers' training, I have sent that (many) children to school'… Then if I get the Nobel Peace Prize, I will be saying, Yeah, I deserve it, somehow… I want to become a Prime Minister of Pakistan, and I think it's really good. Because through politics I can serve my whole county. I can be the doctor of the whole country… I can spend much of the money from the budget on education," she told It appears that becoming prime minister is a means to the end she has dedicated her life to… [in recalling when she got shot] He asked, 'Who is Malala?' He did not give me time to answer his question… He fired three bullets… One bullet hit me in the left side of my forehead, just above here, and it went down through my neck and into my shoulder… But still if I look at (it), it's a miracle… A Nobel Peace Prize would help me to begin this campaign for girls' education… But the real call, the most precious call, that I want to get and for which I'm thirsting and for which I want to struggle hard, that is the award to see every child to go to school, that is the award of peace and education for every child. And for that, I will struggle and I will work hard.”

“On my way from school to home I heard a man saying “I will kill you.” I hastened my pace and after a while I looked back if the man was still coming behind me. But to my utter relief he was talking on his mobile and must have been threatening someone else over the phone.”
