unCommon Authors, an Author Video Series: DEFIANT DREAMS by Sola Mahfouz and Malaina Kapoor

[@donnad2047]

Thank you for sharing your story. My heart goes out to you and your family in the difficult circumstances that you live on a daily basis. The choice of either being free and separated from your family or being with family but under constant domination of men and a belief system are incredibly difficult. So unfair. As an American I have a belief of what I think is fair, what is right and wrong. Your story teaches me how little I understand about the world. Also how little I take advantage of the daily opportunities around me. Thank you for sharing your journey. I thank the co-author as well. Very well written. I could feel the ups and downs of Sola and her life. I understand a little better the struggle of the people of Afghanistan. What a seemingly impossible situation.
