Hi Rahela! I love this story — it’s full of suspense, and thankfully, the ending is a happy one. It’s fun for me that I can actually picture you gathering mulberries in Afghanistan.

Dear Masooma,
Thank you for exposing the dark side of Baglani bread-making. It’s very sobering to learn that something that brings pleasure to so many people comes at such a high price for these girls. Great work on this article.

Hello everyone, this is Marzia.

I’m not thinking about getting married until I make sure that I have my education and I can find a person who has the same goals and can support me while I bring positive changes to Afghan women’s rights and lives.
