Today is International Women's Day. The poem below is by Meena, an Afghan
activist who founded the Revolutionary Association of the Women of
Afghanistan. She was assassinated in 1987 for her feminist politics.


Women in Burka

I’ll Never Return
I'm the woman who has awoken
I've arisen and become a tempest through the ashes of my burnt children
I've arisen from the rivulets of my brother's blood
My nation's wrath has empowered me
My ruined and burnt villages fill me with hatred against the enemy,
I'm the woman who has awoken,
I've found my path and will never return.
I've opened closed doors of ignorance
I've said farewell to all golden bracelets
Oh compatriot, I'm not what I was
I'm the woman who has awoken
I've found my path and will never return...
