2. But that is just 1 battle. Afghan women activists also face pressure from those who label them as "anti-peace" 4 demanding an inclusive process & aiming 4 a lasting peace. This label is used more generously against activists than anyone actually hindering the process
3. Then there r those who label women activists as "urban", "elitist" & detached, when d last time they spoke to someone from a rural community was probably years ago, & when women r d only Af constituency that have spoken on peace from all parts of Af through @AfgWomen4Peace
4. There are also people like Dr. Cheryl Benard who belittle Afghan women's resistance, ignoring history, context and extent of our resistance.
Despite all dis, Af women continue 2 mobilize, 2 resist, 2 speak out.Of course we still have a lot of homework 2 do, 2 include more voices from across Af, 2 develop more content on various aspects of peace, 2 broaden alliances internally & internationally, we know we MUST do more
What gives me hope n dis very uncertain time for my country, is d activism of Af women & youth & d support of friends of Af. This gives me confidence that despite d political hurdles, we might be able to utilize d opportunity 4 ending dis war, & even have hope for peace.
