A Thousand Girls Like Me
“One woman's obstinate battle to make her voice heard demonstrates the power of action over fear”
When Khatera, a 23-year-old Afghan woman, forces her father to stand trial after a lifetime of sexual abuse, she risks her family, freedom, and personal safety to expose a judicial system that incriminates the very women who seek protection.
