Malala Yousafzai

 

Malala Yousafzai was born on the 12th of 1997 in Mingora, a small town in the Swat District of north-west Pakistan.  Malala’s father named her after a girl named Malalai, a Pashtun heroine who stood up for women's education and was killed for it.  Malala's father runs with school in Northwest Pakistan that Malala goes to. Two Talibans with beards came onto Malala’s bus and shot her in the left side of her face near the ear, and the Taliban fled and Malala was rushed to a nearby hospital where she was still breathing. After Malala recovered fully she gave a speech on her 16th birthday to the United Nations. The Taliban still consider Malala as a target. She also wrote a book called I am Malala. Malala gives speeches worldwide today and is one of the leading activists in women's education worldwide.
