14 year old girl Malala Yousufzai was shot outside her school by the Taliban because she was famous for speaking against them. She is in critical condition with wounds in her neck and head. She was nominated for many awards for child activists and later had received the highest civilian award. She has been speaking out against the militants and promoting Obama and the western culture in more conservative areas. She has been receiving threats for years but she still continued to speak up even if no one was with her. Doctors are still attempting to save her even though t is becoming quite difficult as time goes by but there are thousands of people praying for her and her bravery.
