The Tyee online publication often has interesting and thought-provoking stories and essays. The Monday, April 9th edition was no exception.
This edition includes a wonderful, though sadly brief, photo essay on the lives of Afghan women. In particular, it features a group of women and their families who have persevered under the harsh rule of the Taliban, and who have been running a radio station, Radio Quyaash, in Northern Afghanistan.
At the bottom of The Tyee article, there is also some information on the persecution of men and children at the extremist hands of the Taliban, reminding the reader of the indiscriminate mass killings and brutalization of an entire population. This persecution continues still.

In another article published by The Tyee on March 29th, 2007 (link here), the changing role (yet continued persecution) of women in Iran is covered. This article exhibits how vast the definition of "feminism" really is, as compared around the world.
