The Song That Sparked a Movement in Afghanistan | Nila Ibrahimi | TED

[@mustafabozurgmehr9014]

Proud of her. She is a Hazara girl, raising the voice of Afghan girls and women on the world stage.

[@programing23]

"Why do you say, 'She is a Hazara girl'? Don't be prejudiced!"

[@mr_hamza_2006]

Isn't she ​@@programing23

[@arminqasimi215]

@@programing23I totally agree with you. Even though I, myself, am Hazara, by labeling people either Hazara, Pashton etc., we just perpetuate an incessant loop that separated us, Afghanistan and is the main reason of current situation. Such false sayings only deepen this wound, worsening the catastrophe that has descended on us

[@mohammadkhan9585]

She is afghan girl, it’s not her it’s afghan girl voice.

[@mohammadkhan9585]

@AhmedKorcuglu I love that you are Hazara I love Hazara people, I have more friends in hazaras then Pashtoon’s which I’m, but if you don’t want someone to be the voice of all afghan girl it’s okay. I don’t wanna fight you, I wanted to make her big, if you don’t want that you Hazara feel superior and better then all others I don’t blame you stay that way and I don’t judge you..

[@Afghangirl2030]

I am living in Afghanistan and I'm a young afghan girl like Nila but our difference is that my life froze in 15th august but she raised her voice and move as a afghan girl I proud of you Nila and keep shining dear🤍🤍

Thanks to Almighty this girl is not in Afghanistan where who knows what the so called "Sharia Law" experts would have done to her.....

[@nila45.34]

Proud of you As a Hazara Afghan ❤ Afghan girls are powerful and will never give up.

[@AhmedKorcuglu]

Lemme reply to you as a Hazara, no such ethnic labeling helps people. No one. Outside that god damn country, we're all Afghans. When will you my fellow Hazaras start to understand things? Think big. Consider the wider picture.

[@Usersxjhsjxhdhs]

It's incredible how well she speaks English, considering she has only been living in Canada for three years.

[@RostamBahadur]

We are proud of you Nila! Your story, hard work, steadfastness, and resilience is inspiring for all girls! Bravo!

[@Pashazeco]

As an Afghan man who is from Afghanistan, I'm so proud of her she is a gem

[@zamanEhsani]

so proud of her. she is a true Hazara. Afghan girls are all proud and brave. All fighters.

[@B.Qasimi]

Impressed... thank you Nila for raising your voice against the Taliban. Although every one of us has raised our voices but yours is now more powerful as your are everywhere on social media. I hope one day we can have a country where women have their freedom.

[@RostamBahadur]

Translation of the first poems of the video: "Boro bakhayr ba maktab, dars bekhān dokhtar jān O beloved girl! Go to school and learn! Ba tu niyāz dāra Afghānistān dokhtar jān Afghanistan needs you, O beloved girl! Zange maktab mekhāna dang dang dang The bell of the school rings dang dang dang Bā darse naw mesha zendagāni rang rang (And) the life becomes colorful with the new lesson Then, she continues that we girls protest and stand against the decision of the Kabul Educational Department. (I think it was before of the Fall of Kabul in 2021 during the republic that the Ministry of Education ordered that girls above 13 can't sing. It was by the pressure of the international community, especially UK that they finally reversed their decision). Nila adds that: "To remove our voice is to remove ourselves. We stand against this decision and join our voices."

[@reza2005haidari]

Thank you brother for such exact dictation and translation of that inspiring song for Afghanistani girls. It was great.❤❤❤

[@dannydonald380]

Lol dang dang

[@FatimaAbdullahi-d6b]

That last message really made me emotional. I'm living in Afghanistan and the situation is really tough. I have always been trying, but these last days I have been feeling like giving up and having no hope and really needed to hear that. Thank you Nila for being our voice.❤

[@Pashazeco]

@@FatimaAbdullahi-d6b I can understand your frustration but hold on, you'll be doing better in your life days ahead.

[@sooma-ai]

Afghan activist Nila Ibrahimi shares how she used song to protest oppressive laws in Afghanistan before the Taliban takeover. She discusses finding her voice through activism, escaping the country, and her message to the Taliban about the resilience of Afghan girls.

[@mesharim4701]

What about America killing millions in Afghanistan, Do we need a song for that too? no? America good, Afghan bad? 😂

[@Akkikyadav]

Why r u posting the description here.

[@TheEnglishSkool]

Hope all Afghan women get their fundmental rights (study and work) 💚 One thing the Taliban have forgotten is Islam began with the word 'Iqra' meaning read.

[@fghan786]

Wrong, Iqra means repeat after me.

[@Usersxjhsjxhdhs]

Let's not forget that the Taliban killed hundreds of boys and girls in their school by sending suicide bombers. They mostly targeted Hazara girls looking like Nila. Nila survived several suicide attacks. However, it's incredible how good English she's speaking. She has only been living in Canada for 3 years.

[@hamid6082]

Proud of Hazara❤

[@halimahabib8836]

As an Afghan girl who has been living far from my country for five years, I feel a deep connection to my people in Afghanistan. Even though I am not there physically, I stand in solidarity with them. In every essay l've written throughout school and college, I have expressed my concerns about the struggles Afghanistan faces-it's simply not fair. In every movement l've participated in, I have made it a point to speak up for Afghanistan. I believe it is our collective responsibility to raise awareness and advocate for those who cannot speak for themselves.

[@mustafashafayee4920]

Wow I can’t believe we have such amazing talents and great youths. I was also a student in Marefat high school, and I have seen many girls and boys who had fantastic achievements as one of them here in TED talk did an outstanding talk! Really proud to see our Hazara girls shining!

[@Jawad-Hasseim]

I am happy to see, there are such strong Afghan girls who fight to take their education right back. I pray for the day that all my country's girls gain their right to live in equity.

[@M.Amin.V.e]

How's she impressed everyone, the girl who's able to expert her and her countrywomen power I'm so pleased that I heard her message and her voice All for free Afghanistan and any dictatorship ❤🚩 🇦🇫 from Iran

[@roman54634]

Very proud and impressed of your interview

[@robertlust6234]

04:45 I'm surprised to see that she has a co-host for part of this especially considering how well she speaks English 05:13 I don't think she's a teenager anymore because when Afghanistan got taken by Taliban was a long time ago. I was going to say that's when I was in high school but that was for the September 11th.. That's not the same thing America hey

[@madeena-amini]

and we won`t give up never. we won`t give them what they want. we`re not the same as we were 20 years before. we`re gonna get what we deserve whether by asking or taking it.

[@fghan786]

این شما و این ما اگر بعد از این اندک خواهشات شیطانی تان در سرزمین مان پیاده شد ما هم افغان نباشیم

[@hamednabizada3818]

Every word holds immense power, and the lyrics in her singing have triumphed over those who have sought to ban education for girls in Afghanistan. Continue to strive diligently and demonstrate our capabilities to the world. We are incredibly proud of you, Nila Ibrahim - the Voice of Afghan Girls.

All the people our country from Afghanistan to proud of you Nila Ebrahimi good luck sister ❤

That was an incredibly powerful speech, showcasing the strength and resilience of Afghan women and girls who continue to inspire the world; as an Afghan girl, I am deeply proud of you for amplifying our voices even in the face of the Taliban's oppression, I firmly believe in the courage of the women in my homeland, who will find a way to overcome and reclaim their right to education and opportunity.

I hate it when we as Afghans are still talking about Hazara, Tajik, and Pashtoon. Please, guys, that’s pathetic. This was the reason Afghanistan fell apart. MashaAllah she is a strong girl.

[@MyDis-bl2st]

such a heart breaking story, to the freedom of the afghan girls .

[@NajibShams]

I am proud of the Afghan women and girls. The Taliban came to the power with the help of US and Pakistan army. The NATO and the US in general betrayed the Afghan people and signed the Qatar Agreement to replace the corrupted regime that was a by product of the US governments. Because of that betrayal, the Afghan people now pays the price.

[@marwaali4901]

We are so proud of you Nila Jan. ❤❤

[@FatimaSarwari-pi6hu]

Hazara, Tajik, Uzbek and other minority groups wants their women’s to get educated, except Afghan ethnic group which dominates the Taliban regime. Afghan people in the southern Afghanistan have a code which is called “Pashtunwalli” which forbids women from having basic human rights. Afghan doesn’t represent the whole population of Afghanistan. This term has been forced on other nationalities living in Afghanistan.

[@AliEkhlasi-m8h]

Proud of Hazara People, especially thier Women❤ True fighters and saviors...

[@0FreakShow0]

[@reza2005haidari]

Banning the girls education, the Taliban do not practice the religion of islam, they practice the religion of Tlibanism. In fact, there are a lot members of that group who seem disagreeing those practices, but they agree in order to be in power.

We are all one nation. We are not Hazara, Tajik or Pashton. We are just deprived girls whose rights are taken away and we have to fight against and regain it.

[@muhammadziaullah7590]

Changing one's identity, adopting others culture and then saying from there that they raise their voice is not an act of bravery I think. There are some extremities of the Taliban government I recognize but who has done destruction in Afghanistan for many decades, who is doing genocide in Palestine and the pandemic is spreading across the whole middle east as we have seen from the Syria situation, where first they declare an organization terrorists and then when it comes to thier benefits they directly turn them into revolutionaries. Think of inside stories what they are doing with our minds, culture, religion and our sacred places.

She is talking about the situation girls are living in in Afghanistan under Talibans government and how she scape the country . They are an intemperate group who has overtaken the country. They are against women's rights and have banned girls from education and working or going out.

Nila you beautiful brave soul! Feminism will succeed because of innovative and motivated people just like you. It is going to accelerate in progress soon. I pray for you and all Afghani people. Extreme groups trying to push a very false narrative of what the religions and the higher power of God really want to achieve and would want to see from the people of the Faith. War and devastation is not what is wanted by God. You are an inspirational speaker and I’m proud of your use of your voice and your harnessing your abilities to fight for rights for all girls and women of Afghanistan! 😊💚🔮☦️🏳️‍⚧️
