Writing PromptThis weeks focus for our reading prompt focus: Grammar and DepthThe vast majority of Afghanistan's population professes to be followers of Islam. Over 1400 years ago, Islam

demanded that men and women be equal before God, and gave them various rights such the right to

inheritance, the right to vote, the right to work, and even choose their own partners in marriage. For centuries

now in Afghanistan, women have been denied these rights either by official government decree or by theirown husbands, fathers, and brothers. During the rule of the Taliban (1996 - 2001), women were treated worse

than in any other time or by any other society. They were forbidden to work, leave the house without a male

escort, not allowed to seek medical help from a male doctor, and forced to cover themselves from head to toe,

even covering their eyes. Women who were doctors and teachers before, suddenly were forced to be beggars

and even prostitutes in order to feed their families. Since the fall of the Taliban in late 2001, many would agree

that the political and cultural position of Afghan women has improved substantially. The recently adopted

Afghan constitution states that "the citizens of Afghanistan - whether man or woman- have equal rights andduties before the law". So far, women have been allowed to return back to work, the government no longerforces them to wear the all covering burqa, and they even have been appointed to prominent positions in the

government. Despite all these changes many challenges still remain. The repression of women is still prevalent

in rural areas where many families still restrict their own mothers, daughters, wives and sisters from

participation in public life. They are still forced into marriages and denied a basic education. Numerous school

for girls have been burned down and little girls have even been poisoned to death for daring to go to school. -

Creature of Week!

The Honey Badger(Mellivora capensis), also known asthe Ratel, is a monotypic species ofmustelid native to Africa,the Middle East and the Indian Subcontinent. Despite its name,

the honey badger does not closely resemble otherbadger

species, instead bearing more anatomical similarities to

polecats. It is classed as Least Concern by the IUCN due to itsextensive range and general environmental adaptations. It is a

primarily carnivorous species, and has few natural predators due

to its thick skin and ferocious defensive abilities.
