Malala Yousafzai was only 8 years old when she first learned that what she wore would make her a target," writes Wendy Kaur in her sit-down with the Pakistani activist. The policing of women's bodies and clothes is a theme the Nobel laureate explores in her new memoir, Finding My Way. Today, the girl who became famous at 15 after a Taliban assassination attempt is a 28-year-old woman, learning to block out criticism and make her own choices—which she says, is true empowerment. I hope you'll give this fascinating conversation a read this weekend. —Sara Austin, executive editor |
