“For the first time in my life, I felt so proud, strong, and powerful because I was standing against them and demanding a right that God has given us,” Marwa told AFP, asking not to be further identified.Her sister shot a video of the silent protest with a phone from a car as Marwa held up a poster just metres from the entrance to the Kabul University campus, the country’s biggest and most prestigious institution.In their latest assault on women’s rights, the Taliban last week banned university education for women, prompting international outrage.On Sunday, in front of Taliban guards deployed at the Kabul University gates, Marwa courageously carried a placard that read “Iqra”, the Arabic word for “read”.Women have also been barred from going to parks, gyms, and public baths."
