One year after the Taliban took power in Afghanistan, the lives of women and girls have changed dramatically.
Girls are no longer permitted to attend secondary school. Women are blocked from working in most sectors. And they are under orders to cover themselves in public.
Rangina Hamidi was the acting minister of education when the Taliban took control of Afghanistan. We hear about her decision to leave the country and her yearning to return.
Additional reporting in this episode comes from NPR's Steve Inskeep and Diaa Hadid.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
