Storyboard Text
- My father was a teacher and ran a girls’ school in our village. I loved school. But everything changed when the Taliban took control of our town in Swat Valley. The extremists banned many things — like owning a television and playing music — and enforced harsh punishments for those who defied their orders. And they said girls could no longer go to school.In January 2008 when I was just 11 years old, I said goodbye to my classmates, not knowing when — if ever — I would see them again.
- I spoke out publicly on behalf of girls and our right to learn. And this made me a target.In October 2012, on my way home from school, a masked gunman boarded my school bus and asked, “Who is Malala?”
- He shot me on the left side of my head.
- I woke up 10 days later in a hospital in Birmingham, England. The doctors and nurses told me about the attack — and that people around the world were praying for my recovery.
- After months of surgeries and rehabilitation, I joined my family in our new home in the U.K.
- With my father, who has always been my ally and inspiration, I established Malala Fund, a charity dedicated to giving every girl an opportunity to achieve a future she chooses. In recognition of our work, I received the Nobel Peace Prize in December 2014 and became the youngest-ever Nobel laureate.
