100-Year History of Afghan Women 1919-2021 & How Taliban May Affect Peace in Afghanistan

[@kerryneylan7978]

Thank you Humaira, this had been so insightful. I'm guessing you are no longer in Afghanistan and I hope you are safe but sending love and prayers to those that the country can return to the time when it was at it's best and people wanted to visit it rather than fear it.

[@hghilzai]

Thank you for your prayers and generous words.

[@karimkamanulelealquintero8211]

Tashakur Humaira. My paternal grandmother was from Afghanistan and I learned quite a bit from her about Afghanistan. She came here to the US in the early 1900's with my Syrian grandfather. She would really love you for what you said in this video. Tashakur again ❤

Thank you very much for creating and sharing this. It is so informative and current. I would like to share it with friends in Virginia and Maryland.

[@hghilzai]

I appreciate you watching and your kind words. Thank you fir sharing with others.

[@mikejohnson2173]

Hi Rich! Enjoyed your comment. Was just wondering, were you able to share? I'm involved with interreligious dialogue group on the west coast. Are you a part of any interreligious dialogue groups too?

[@zohraraoufi4883]

Excellent video, well organized and very informative. Thank you for your hard work and supporting Afghan women.

[@hghilzai]

Thank you very much. I’m glad it resonated with you.

[@kitmreegrai3367]

Very enlightening and inspiring; May we all have the spirit and resolve of an Afghani girl and woman

[@sofiamorris3366]

Very clear and informative! Another great video

[@hghilzai]

Thank you! I'm glad you found it educational.

[@zohraghilzai6253]

Great job! I loved the video it is very informative and extremely well done.

[@hghilzai]

Thank you!

[@maryamgardiwal1837]

Thank you! Waiting impatiently 🌷

[@hghilzai]

It’ll be available Thursday morning. I hope you enjoy it.

[@ricknl2002]

Thank you Humaira, As a western father of 2 college-educated daughters in their twenties, I have a hard time understanding what the women in Afghanistan have to go through. I find your video very enlightening and hope and pray that times will change and the world, of which we have made a big mess, will become better, also for the Afghan women. After all we we must be able to live together in tolerance. It does not matter if this is with religion, without religion and on depending where you or your ancestors are born. I surely hope next and present generations finally will see this and act on it!

[@Walkingdead06]

Thanks for this, I feel for the women of Afghanistan, hopefully one day they will find their freedom.

[@patrickanthw]

I loved this history lesson!

[@hghilzai]

Thank you for watching.

[@afghanstudio3794]

Thank you for your information. Hopefully, see more videos in the future! 🤗🤗

[@hghilzai]

You’re welcome.

[@naftalikahn4559]

Thats very true God bless

[@rajnandinivishwas8789]

Beautiful explanation ❤️❤️❤️

[@hildagrigorian566]

Thank you for brining knowledge to masses and to those who portrayed a negative image of Afghan women. I worked and lived in Afghanistan for 7 years and still carry the love of Afghans in my heart. I worked with women of all ages and all walks of life. To empower Afghan women in all spectrum of life, we can NOT change the mind of the male populace, but we can earn their trust and bring awareness of how Afghan women can be an added value rather than a liability. Afghan women and Afghan people in general are resilient people, The women will fight for their freedom, but my research of many years (Including Doctoral dissertation) has shown that the international community has looked the other way to protect the rights of Afghan women. Unfortunately, once the U.S. departs Afghanistan, the Taliban will return and the dark clouds will, once again appear. I pray for my Afghan people every day, I love my Afghanistan and will pray for peace to return to Afghanistan. Khoda negahdar e Afghanisan

[@hghilzai]

I appreciate your perspective and really appreciate your deep connection to the Afghanistan. I’m disappointed you the announcement of the troop withdrawal as worry about the return of the Taliban.

[@abigailk1098]

Love your work Humaira.Supporting you from NE.India.

[@hghilzai]

Thank you!

[@jenniferbowen303]

I think you are fantastic with all that you do, and I thank you for presenting Afghan women into our world conversation so that we can all support, applaud and appreciate them! May we all become more informed, more aware and more empowered by women such as yourself who take the time to so generously enlighten us as to the legacy of our sisters from many nations and cultures such as Afghanistan. I deeply appreciate this expansive perspective that goes so far beyond even the best standard journalism.

[@hghilzai]

Thank you Jennifer for your support and thoughtful words. My hope for this video was to be informative.

[@AfG_313]

This was great

[@lauratedescolegrand5713]

Excellent!

[@hghilzai]

Thank you!

[@ronaldotto534]

thank you! Inshallah. Any suggestions concerning public health policy during the US occupation?- ---Ron

[@sarahnez9137]

Thank you 💗😘😊💗

[@jimmorris4948]

The social divide between rural and urban areas in Afghanistan has disconcerting parallels with US political divides today.

[@hghilzai]

Yes. It seems our countries are not as different as we think.

[@mariatrindadecoelho1222]

I´m from Brazil. Thanks for video.

[@Ladyhawk47]

I support the rights of Adghan women and I fully support the policies initiated in Afghanistan's central government to promote peaceful co-existance between men and women in the cities and rural provinces, in educational institutions, in the workplace, and in lawmaking entities. I support this because I believe in a future where both girls and boys can have hope and excercise their abilities to the fullest. This has been worth all the efforts invested, and is worth future efforts as well.

[@hghilzai]

Thank you for your input. Yes, it is everyone's hope that the efforts made will affect a positive future for Afghan women, girls, boys, and men.

[@fatemamushtaq211]

Important information.

[@고음질살레]

Insha'Allah one day Afghanistan will rest

[@katestoryteller]

Excellent video that summarizes the historic role of Afghan women. I have been privileged to see the longer version in person. How do you think President Biden and Vice President Harris can support the UN rights for women as the US military draws down?

[@Skapaans]

You think those two nutjobs can do anything?

[@roadiekillor8723]

Thank you. I knew almost nothing about what you talked about in this video. I would also like to apologise to any one who has come from the Afghanistan and surrounds to Australia and may have been treated poorly by Australians. We went told about this at school and where I lived in the 2000s there was a lot of misinformation. I was told back then, that the Muslims would come to Australia and force all women to wear burkas and have no rights. I was an idiot for not questioning that. In the 2010s I thought women covered themselves up because they were so beautiful and didn't want to be seen as objects. I see now that there was a lot more to everything.

[@hghilzai]

Thank you for your comment.

[@Amankhan-lu5bx]

Dear sister my name is Aman ullah. My father named me aman ullah because he loved King Ghazi Aman ullah Khan . My cast also belongs to khilji I wish i go to my homeland and see my grandfather house.

[@rubystone1555]

The reason all of Afghanistan people are suffering is because of Pashtun kings, Pashtun presidents and Pashtun nationalists, it’s time to divide Afghanistan and Partition of all Pashtuns and non Pashtuns(Tajiks, Hazaras, Uzbeks). This is the only way the country will be at peace and progress and modernize. Tajiks is the owner of this country , they have more then 5000 years of history by the name of Khorasan, Pashtuns real country is Pakistan they belong to Pashtunistan.

[@zaara25]

It’s not because of Pashtuns but people like you who are full of hate and ignorance. People like you are the ones that set up people against each other and preach hate and disunity. It must be hard living with so much hate towards the people of Afghanistan. I piety you

[@meatiest1989]

I hope Afghanistan can be good again

[@hghilzai]

I hope so too.

[@meatiest1989]

NEVERMIND, how this comment aged like milk

[@Imakesnaps]

I can only hope that US policy toward Afghanistan will not fail its women. But I'm afraid it will. Please no. I was in Afghanistan in May, 1963, making a news documentary film for NBC News. I'm sure that NBC has not done another program about the country since then. In 1963, I spoke with the king about our work and he arranged for me to film Buzkashi. I want more schools for girls. Andrew

[@hghilzai]

Thank you so much for sharing your experience in Afghanistan. Those truly were the years of peace. Would you agree? As a little girl, I loved going to buzkashi games.

[@Imakesnaps]

@@hghilzai yes, those were the years of peace. I'm so ashamed that for all the money spent by the US, Afghan girls didn't get their share. And no guarantee for the future. We're slow learners, unlike Afghan girls. I'm going to try to get the PBS Evening News to do some useful coverage but it's hard for them. They haven't seen the Hindu Kush. Thanks for your history. I have a powerful daughter and I'm sending on to her. Thanks again!

[@hghilzai]

@@Imakesnaps I so appreciate your passion and care for the Afghan girls. Through my non-profit Afghan Friends Network, for 17 years I worked to improve the ives of Afghan women and girls through education, in Ghazni.. Your advocacy on our behalf is so appreciated. Thank you for sharing this with your daughter and larger community. Tashakor.

[@Imakesnaps]

@@hghilzai I wish I could do much more! I'm old now. 84. But I really really appreciate what YOU have done and what you say!

[@hghilzai]

@@Imakesnaps Thank you. Your kind words mean a lot to me.

[@soccer90tem80]

The root cause of misery in Afghanistan is and was Hamed Karzai and Ashraf Ghani and too many others who betrayed their country and people for power and money. This was a nice brief history of Afghanistan but i dont understand why you are trying to make the current government of Afghanistan look good lol.

[@soniaabassy9024]

Love you 😍 so proud of you beautiful 🙏🙏🙏❤️

Afghan* Calling an Afghan Afghani is like me calling an American a dollar

[@themadfarmer5207]

This one of the most eloquent speakers that has appeared on screenl in a long time.she is a credit to her gender. And to what Afghanistan was. This was a highly cultured society the like of which was barely matched by what we call western standards.The curse is extreme Islam which screams to the heavens for isolation, and anhialation Taliban are a curse on Islam and the world. Extreme Islam is a movement of thugs and murderers who want power under the guise of being Islamic. Enough said I am shocked

[@user-hx8hp5ks6s]

Issue is not religion cause the Korean never changes. It’s the people who make the beautiful religion look bad just as in any other religion
