A friend of a friend was working with Girls College and was looking for volunteers to assist Afghan women with college entrance essays. This struck a chord with Keith, aligning perfectly with her expertise in teaching English and her passion for helping disenfranchised youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Little did she know that this encounter would lead her to Rezayi, a resilient young woman determined to defy the narrative the Taliban had written for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"679\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/lynchburg-va\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-18-at-12.40.02-PM-1024x679.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/lynchburg-va\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-18-at-12.40.02-PM-980x650.png 980w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/lynchburg-va\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-18-at-12.40.02-PM-480x318.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAt the time, I didn\u2019t know anything about the international student process, much less the process needed for an Afghan woman who has more hurdles than the average international student to attend an American university,\u201d Keith said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time, the Taliban did not allow women to attend any type of higher education. In the year since, they have banned education for women over the third grade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no university education, and they\u2019ve also banned women from being in public spaces,\u201d Keith said. \u201cSo they\u2019re not allowed to go to their public parks, they\u2019re not allowed to work out at gyms, they\u2019re not allowed to exercise, and so the crackdown is just more and more and more.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"679\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/lynchburg-va\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-18-at-12.40.35-PM-1024x679.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/lynchburg-va\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-18-at-12.40.35-PM-980x650.png 980w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/lynchburg-va\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-18-at-12.40.35-PM-480x318.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Girls College allows Afghan women to find education, against the Taliban\u2019s orders. When Keith got involved, she thought she\u2019d just be helping students write essays. It wasn\u2019t long until she was all-in on Rezayi and her pursuit of higher education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Back in Afghanistan, Rezayi\u2019s dreams were being shackled by always-evolving restrictions. \u201cYou don\u2019t have any opportunity there,\u201d Rezayi said. \u201cWhen the Taliban came, I became hopeless. I was so sad. I was crying at night. Deep in my heart, it was broken inside me.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, lives can now and forever be changed. Girls College will create a future for countless women, and Keith will be here standing with open arms to put hearts back together. <strong>GN<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NELSON MANDELA famously said, \u201cEducation is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.\u201d The story of University of Lynchburg student Shukria Rezayi (not her real name, for security) paints a powerful picture of what Afghani women will do to wield such a weapon.
