In the Name of Honor
by Mukhtar Mai
She was raped at the order of a village council in Pakistan because one of the local big families said her brother, who I don’t think was even a teenager, had assaulted one of their daughters. In fact, he had only been talking to her. Mukhtar Mai is an amazing woman, who, instead of doing what she was expected to do, resisted, and as a result women contacted her from all over Pakistan and she tries to support them.
