00:00:00So, are we all settled?
00:00:29Will you pull it up one more time?
00:00:32Yeah, sure.
00:00:35Okay, so tell me that story.
00:00:38Okay.
00:00:40So, before I was born, when I was in the tummy of my mother,
00:00:44my father would always say a tappa, a Pashtun story.
00:00:50If you look at the world map on the east side, you can find a country called Afghanistan.
00:01:04Long ago, it had a fight with another country called England.
00:01:14The Afghan people, they were losing hope.
00:01:24And a teenager saw the fighters running away.
00:01:38She rose up to the mountain.
00:01:55She raised her voice.
00:01:58Kapamaywand ki shahid na shwe grana la liya gay nanggay ladis atina.
00:02:07Which simply means that it's better to live like a lion for one day than to live like a slave for a hundred years.
00:02:17She encouraged the people of Afghanistan.
00:02:43She led the army to a great victory.
00:02:49But she was shot.
00:02:54And she died on that battlefield.
00:03:00Her name was Malalai.
00:03:05When I was in coma, I had these terrible dreams.
00:03:22And I was thinking that I was dead.
00:03:32She was killed.
00:03:33She was killed.
00:03:34Lying near death.
00:03:35A 15 year old was shot for standing up to the Taliban.
00:03:38Tonight Malala remains in intensive care.
00:03:39She was shot in the head by the Taliban for daring to suggest girls should go to school.
00:03:43Lying near death.
00:03:47A 15-year-old was shot for standing up to the Taliban.
00:03:51Tonight, Malala remains in intensive care.
00:03:54She was shot in the head by the Taliban for daring to suggest girls should go to school.
00:04:00Now millions around the world are watching to see if she will die for her cause.
00:04:13When I opened my eyes, I did not know where I was.
00:04:21I realized that this is not my country.
00:04:27And I thought, no one knows what's my name.
00:04:37I saw nurses and doctors.
00:04:43When she first woke up, her first question was, where's my father?
00:04:56We were thinking what Malala will be thinking.
00:05:02I was a child.
00:05:04You should have stopped me.
00:05:07What has happened to me is because of you.
00:05:13It is an honor for me to be speaking again.
00:05:37Come, Malala, come.
00:05:40What is the problem?
00:05:41I lost my shoes.
00:05:43You want what?
00:05:44Yeah, I want to go.
00:05:45It's okay.
00:05:47Come on, Mama.
00:05:48Come on.
00:05:49Come on, let me go.

00:06:48people think that she's like very kind and she speaks for people's rights but that's not true

00:07:16should only praise me I play with them I fight with them I get a little bit naughty but that's
00:07:23fine that's my right but she's a little bit naughty little bit that much what do you mean she's naughty

00:07:35brother's fighting with me you come and rescue me when I go to your room you slap me there as well
00:07:40that's kind of confusing he's saying like I beat Khushal and then I protect Atal but when I take
00:07:52him to my room then I myself give him a slap it's out of love it's just for love it's just not a love
00:08:01it's a it is a sign of love it's a sign of like how much I love you and how much sweet and cute you

00:09:08We'll see you next time.
00:09:38I don't know where the West is coming from.
00:09:40It's okay. So look there.
00:09:43When I was in Pakistan, it was a different world for me.
00:09:46Here I have just spent one year only.
00:09:49I don't really understand this new society and these new rules.
00:09:53Oh dear, look!
00:10:00I want people to learn from the experience I had and the story of my life.
00:10:05They want you alone, so look there.
00:10:07Center.
00:10:09The name of the show is The Daily Show.
00:10:12Very nice to see you.
00:10:17This is great.
00:10:19The Queen of England has invited you to the palace.
00:10:24With all these public appearances, do you have any semblance of a normal life?
00:10:28Take a deep breath. Just relax your hands.
00:10:31And...
00:10:38Look to this side.
00:10:39Okay?
00:10:42No, you're good. You're good. Thank you. You're right.
00:10:44Sure.
00:10:45Which came on now?
00:10:46Well...
00:10:47I'm done.
00:10:48We were not allowed to go to market.
00:10:49We were not allowed to go to school.
00:10:51And that's why I spoke.
00:10:52Because I believe in equality.
00:10:54And I believe that there is no difference between a man and a woman.
00:10:57I even believe that a woman is more powerful than men.
00:11:00What?
00:11:01Wait!
00:11:07You should teach me how to use the Twitter.
00:11:10Hmm?
00:11:11It's your next tweet.
00:11:13No, but you didn't find it.
00:11:15Yeah, I have it.
00:11:17Okay, do you want to write something with it?
00:11:19Hmm...
00:11:20No, it's okay. Just...
00:11:22It's self-explanatory.
00:11:23Just send a link to all...
00:11:25To everybody.
00:11:26Let me see your Facebook.
00:11:28Why?
00:11:29Don't...
00:11:30I don't know how to tweet, yeah?
00:11:31This is very bad.
00:11:34Tweeted?
00:11:35Tweeted?
00:11:36Mm-hmm.
00:11:38Look down.
00:11:40Latu Gora.
00:11:43When she was very small,
00:11:45many friends used to come to our home.
00:11:49We used to talk about politics.
00:11:51We used to talk about the basic rights.
00:11:55And she used to sit with us.
00:12:00When I was younger, I used to listen to him.
00:12:02Like, what is he saying?
00:12:04How he talks?
00:12:07We...
00:12:08We became dependent on each other.
00:12:11Like, one soul in two different bodies.
00:12:14Who would you have been if you were just an ordinary girl from the Swat Valley?
00:12:24If...
00:12:25If...
00:12:26I was an ordinary girl in Swat Valley.
00:12:28I'm still an ordinary girl.
00:12:30But if I had an ordinary father,
00:12:32and...
00:12:33an ordinary mother,
00:12:34and a family,
00:12:35a conservative family,
00:12:37then I would have two children now.
00:12:40So...
00:12:41This would have been my future.
00:12:43You would have seen Malala sitting with her two babies.
00:12:47You named her
00:12:49after a girl who spoke out
00:12:51and was killed for speaking out.
00:12:55It's almost as if you said
00:12:58she will be separate from the world,
00:13:00she will be an activist from the world,
00:13:01she will be different from all the other women in Swat in Pakistan.
00:13:04You're right.
00:13:05You're right.
00:13:16It was very early in the morning,
00:13:19when the night goes,
00:13:22and the morning and the day comes.
00:13:27A girl,
00:13:28whose mother was helping my wife
00:13:30in the delivery of the child,
00:13:32came to me.
00:13:34She told me,
00:13:35a child has come to your home.
00:13:51It was kind of a touchment
00:13:53from the very first moment I saw her.
00:13:55A few days after my cousin brought the family tree,
00:14:12it traced back for 300 years.
00:14:18No woman was mentioned.
00:14:20Only men were there.
00:14:21I took a pen,
00:14:22draw a line,
00:14:23and wrote Malala.
00:14:24I took the pen,
00:14:28draw a line,
00:14:30and wrote Malala.
00:14:32draw a line and wrote Malala.
00:15:02Malala, thank you for joining us.
00:15:06Thank you so much.
00:15:07The Taliban have said that if you return to Pakistan that they will kill you.
00:15:11How do you feel about such threats?
00:15:13The one year anniversary of Malala's attack, the Taliban said they would target her again.
00:15:19Malala has often said she wants to return to Pakistan in spite of the death threats.
00:15:26The bullet hit Malala's forehead, shattering her skull inwards.
00:15:34Fragments of bone were driven into her brain.
00:15:38The bullet destroyed both her ear drum and the tiny bones within the middle ear.
00:15:46My father said, have you forgiven them?
00:15:51All this time you've never felt angry?
00:15:54No. Not even as small as an atom, or maybe a nucleus of an atom, or maybe a proton, or maybe a quark.
00:16:03Never angry.
00:16:04Never.
00:16:07Islam teaches us humanity, equality, forgiveness.
00:16:14It doesn't matter for me if my left side of my face isn't working,
00:16:19or if I cannot blink this eye properly.
00:16:23It doesn't matter for me if I can't smile properly.
00:16:26It doesn't matter that I'm not hearing in this ear.
00:16:29I can't hear.
00:16:31I can't hear.
00:16:32I can't hear.
00:16:33When the Taliban came to Swad, everyone thought that they are good people.
00:16:46Mulanath was very charming, very popular in the area.
00:17:09He was the talk of the town. Everybody used to discuss him.
00:17:28He was called Radio Mullah and he would give sermons on radio every day.
00:17:34His sermons could be heard by everyone in the town.
00:17:38The most popular part of his show came every evening when he would read out people's names.
00:17:45People liked to hear which of their neighbours was sinful.
00:17:52What are you doing?
00:17:54Yes.
00:17:55I was very happy to hear that.
00:17:58I wouldn't go anywhere.
00:18:05I would like to sit down here.
00:18:08I'm going to be late.
00:18:11My son was a child.
00:18:14I was born in a little bit.
00:18:17I was born in a little bit.
00:18:20I was born in a little of a little bit.
00:18:24I was born in a little bit.
00:18:28We lived only a hundred miles from our capital Islamabad, but we were separated by a great
00:18:44mountain pass, and for a time our isolation meant we lived in a paradise.
00:18:58Life was normal.
00:18:59Life was happy.
00:19:01I was able to go to the streets and play with my friends, play hide-and-seek and play running
00:19:12games.
00:19:17I miss the dirty streets.
00:19:21I miss the river.
00:19:28I miss my friends.
00:19:35In this new school, it's quite difficult.
00:19:39To be really honest, I don't feel comfortable when people can see my legs.
00:19:46So, my skirt is longer than most of the girls.
00:19:53And then, my life is quite different than their life.
00:19:59Most of them have boyfriends.
00:20:01And most of them have broke up with some of the boyfriends and found new ones.
00:20:08It's quite difficult to tell girls who really I am.
00:20:12I don't know whether they would like me.
00:20:15I don't know whether they are interested in me.
00:20:31In Kenya, there are so many girls who cannot go to school.
00:20:42This girl starts from grade 9.
00:20:44Grade 9?
00:20:45Yeah.
00:20:46Up to which grade?
00:20:47Up to grade 12.
00:20:48But we're still new.
00:20:49We're only after 9 and 10.
00:20:56I lived in this country.
00:20:59I was born in this country called Pakistan.
00:21:01And I was born in Swat Valley.
00:21:04There are more than 180 million people.
00:21:08Most of them are youth.
00:21:10So, who wants to become a doctor?
00:21:13Who wants you?
00:21:14The crooks that we are crooks.
00:21:16The number one is wheat, number two is rice, number three is maize.
00:21:28Who wants to study history?
00:21:34It's called K2.
00:21:39So it comes through these ways and it goes down, down, down and it goes through sin.
00:21:42What do you want to be?
00:21:44On this side?
00:21:53The girls whose mother or father is educated, they should raise up their hands.
00:22:10I loved education.
00:22:12I loved to be a teacher.
00:22:21I started my own school just with $150.
00:22:29We hired a small building.
00:22:39I was the sweeper.
00:22:42I was the manager.
00:22:44I was the headmaster.
00:22:48The very first day of my school, I stood and I recited the national anthem.
00:23:00There were three students and it started.
00:23:08I used to be in school all the day.
00:23:17I loved the way teachers were speaking and I loved the way the students were listening carefully
00:23:23to the teacher.
00:23:26being all around with other girls and teachers.
00:23:35I put in my school, I put in my students a kind of rebel against traditions, customs
00:23:43and how to raise their voices and how to raise their voices.
00:23:51I could not even speak properly, but in my own language, I would try to give lectures to the empty classrooms.
00:24:00School was my home.
00:24:09School was my home.
00:24:14School was my home.
00:24:29Muneeva was here and then I was sitting next to her.
00:24:33Here was I.
00:24:34And here was Shazia and here was Kainath.
00:24:58The Talib came here and I was just very near to him.
00:25:04And then he asked, who is Malala?
00:25:11This is an easy one.
00:25:17This is the name of Malala.
00:25:24Okay, so choose a card in all these cards and then remember it.
00:25:32Now see my tricks.
00:25:39This is your card.
00:25:41How do you do this?
00:25:54The next two bullets hit Shazia and Kainath.
00:26:00What did the bullet hit you?
00:26:01What did the bullet hit you?
00:26:02It's red and um, hair.
00:26:07Is inside and this was outside.
00:26:12Two bullets hit Shazia.
00:26:14And was my shoulder.
00:26:16The bullet that hit her in her left shoulder hit Kainath.
00:26:21So one bullet hit two of them and one bullet went through the hand of Shazia.
00:26:28Featul, the first one, he had a verse.
00:26:29The first one was in Makini.
00:26:30The first one was in the book of Shazia.
00:26:31He had a verse in the book of Shazia.
00:26:32The first one was in the book of Shazia.
00:26:33And he had a verse in the book of Shazia.
00:26:34Mullah Fadlullah might be the first person in our history to talk directly to women in Swat.
00:26:50He was a Pashto speaker and he talked to people in their own language.
00:26:56Sometimes he would say, men, call outside now, I'm talking to the women.
00:27:01I'm talking.
00:27:04He took them into confidence.
00:27:22He took them into confidence.
00:27:25He used to talk to women about their issues directly.
00:27:30you see our women are illiterate ignorant from all other kind of information when all other
00:27:49windows are closed and the only one window that is open to their mind that is fazlullah's window
00:27:57ultimately that man will have an effect on them like many women from swat my mother used to cover
00:28:10her face not for religion but for tradition now in the uk she does not cover her face she only covers
00:28:21her hair sometimes she says don't shake hand with men look down look down don't look at men it's a
00:28:34shame necessary for men can look at me why can't I look at them she told me many times cover your face
00:28:44because people would think that you are not a nice girl but covering my face was something
00:28:57that made me feel like I was just hiding my identity who I was I think she's not
00:29:14independent or free because she's not educated I want to increase my vocabulary because now I'm
00:29:27living in an English society and I want to have like good vocabulary because I know what's a cat but I
00:29:37I didn't know what's a burglar so I have written cat burglar a thief who enters a building by climbing to an upper story
00:29:50school is quite complicated it's really hard to find way so there are blue stairs red stairs green stairs it's
00:30:01good that they're colored otherwise I would have been lost in my school she was always on homework all
00:30:07the day from five until eleven or one she does her homework why I don't know I award you the honorary
00:30:17degree of master of arts I think she's addicted to books that's all I know
00:30:22it's a terrible problem yeah in thought I was considered to be the top girl in the class getting
00:30:37high marks good behavior nice to teachers intelligent here it's hard it's really difficult
00:30:49she's not going to take questions this morning although she is a profoundly influential word leader
00:31:03she's also doing her GCSEs some people think Malala is lucky she's now with Hillary Clinton and she's with
00:31:15Bono she's with the rock stars on the other side I could homework as well rock stars don't need to do
00:31:24homework I think rock stars are lucky when I told my school I wouldn't be at school for one week the
00:31:36teachers give me extra homework should I show you my test and how much marks do I get yeah
00:31:44show me it's really embarrassing this is the biology test I get 73 percent I'm good in the first
00:31:52questions which is all about hormones is it true that when you spoke with President Obama you talked
00:32:09about your concern that drone attacks are fueling terrorism yes of course because I missed that
00:32:16lesson I got only one person in this question out of four this is unfortunately physics and in physics I got 61 percent
00:32:30so what do the girls do if they don't go to school they clean dishes they go to ship they just buy
00:32:37things for other people they I don't really know they clean dishes and they do that stuff what's so wrong
00:32:44with her I don't really know but it's bad my mother she was very beautiful green eyes maroon color hair fair skin
00:33:14when she was five she was admitted to school by my grandfather she was the only girl in her class she
00:33:32realized that all her female cousins were not going to school they were playing in the fields
00:33:44at that time when you sold something in return you would either get food you lie either get corn and flour
00:33:54she got candies nobody asked her where are your books why are you not going to school
00:34:12that was the end of her education
00:34:19that was the end of her education
00:34:23They used to go from town to town and they used to make a heap of all the
00:34:52TV, computers, TV, CDs and burned them on fire.
00:35:11The smoke used to reach to the clouds.
00:35:19They did not want us to watch the television and if they heard it ever, they would come
00:35:25into your house by force, they would take your TV and they would burn your television.
00:35:34Please can you put the banana on the plate?
00:35:51Yes.
00:35:52Please pick out number 10.
00:35:56Is your mother happy here?
00:36:01I think she's not that happy because she doesn't have friends and she don't know the language
00:36:10well but I think she would get used to it.
00:36:15My mother is like the best mom I think ever.
00:36:18Maybe you have a special connection to your mother.
00:36:21Yeah, she loves me.
00:36:23I'm the first one.
00:36:25Yeah, I'm the first one.
00:36:27Not Malala.
00:36:29The first seven days.
00:36:36The first time I saw her, she was 14.
00:36:44I was dark in color so my physical appearance was not good in my eyes and I thought that
00:36:51I met a handsome boy.
00:36:55I had not beauty.
00:36:57She had not education.
00:36:59She saw her completion in me and I saw my completion in her.
00:37:06Is it unusual to have a marriage of love?
00:37:09Love marriage in America and love marriage in Pakistan, these are very different things.
00:37:13You can't have dates, you can't have romantic meetings.
00:37:17You only see someone, she sees you.
00:37:20And the next step is not any dating or any meeting.
00:37:25The next step is to tell your father and mother, I want that girl.
00:37:35Listen to the futuro causal evil every month.
00:37:38All autism are summoned.
00:37:44To none.
00:37:45By all the parents, come from Allah to Allah to his parties to our religiousurmssat.
00:37:49And they begin with my 지나cares.
00:37:50Second step is to tell them to come from Allah.
00:37:51The Most Pink and Only十-E arose from Allah to hear from Allah to Allah to Allah.
00:37:54It is to their children and DIY, they all call themores from Allah to Allah to Allah to Allah to Allah.
00:37:59In the very beginning, Fasudullah was not violent –
00:38:01violent. But he became stronger and stronger and stronger.
00:38:06They started killing policemen and blasting police stations.
00:38:36Taliban are a small group of people. They think that God is a tiny little conservative
00:38:47being. But for us, God is not that tiny. God has sent us to this world to see how would
00:38:58we live? Would they choose a bad way or a good way?
00:39:05My name is Shethima Haruna. My daughter is Margaret Shethima.
00:39:20My daughter's age is 17 years. Her name is Sarah Samuel.
00:39:41It's 100 days since Boko Haram abducted more than 200 girls.
00:39:45The abduction of the Nigerian schoolgirls continues to dominate the national conversation.
00:39:50For three months, parents called for the safe return of their daughters.
00:39:54Now they hope it's the voice of a teenager that will make the difference.
00:39:59I'm still 17. I'm still a teenager. What should I do? How can I help?
00:40:18Malala Yousafzai has joined the campaign to find Nigeria's missing schoolgirls.
00:40:23Much-needed help arriving with 17-year-old Malala Yousafzai, now in Nigeria, bringing with her worldwide attention.
00:40:30President Jonathan clearly hadn't expected that Malala would be so tough and focused.
00:40:36I asked the president that, what promises do you make? I met him today and I told him.
00:40:42You are the elected president. You need to fulfill your responsibilities. And your responsibility is to listen to your people.
00:40:50It is so hard to get things done in this world. You try and too often it doesn't work. But you have to continue. And you never give up.
00:41:05If somebody said something openly against the Taliban, they would be warned.
00:41:30We know about you. You will face the music. They would go early in the morning. And next day he would have been killed.
00:41:46Malala Yousafzai has created Islam. We wanted to kill him.
00:42:04Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:05Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:06Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:07Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:08Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:09Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:10Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:11Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:12Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:13Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:14Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:15Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:16Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:17Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:18Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:19Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:20Malala Yousafzai has created Islam.
00:42:21When I am in a car, looking through the window, I like just to be silent for a while.
00:42:41Sometimes I just feel that I am in England, but it's just for a short time.
00:42:48I am not going to live here forever.
00:42:56When I think of Swat, I just think that it's just a story.
00:43:04It's something that happened and I can never see Swat again.
00:43:13What happened if you went back today?
00:43:21If I go back, would I be shot?
00:43:25Of course I would be.
00:43:29They said that if you come back, we are going to shoot you.
00:43:37I just want to go once and just to see that house, just once.
00:43:46Just look at it.
00:43:49What happened?
00:43:57Just let me do something else.
00:43:59This is boring.
00:44:00Just look at the pictures.
00:44:02Who is it?
00:44:03Shane Watson.
00:44:04This is Shane Watson and he is a really good cricket player.
00:44:08And there is another one as well who is one of my favorites.
00:44:11Shane Watson.
00:44:12You like him more than just for cricket.
00:44:14No, I just like him for cricket and I also like Shahid Afridi, he is a Pakistani cricketer.
00:44:24He is an amazing cricketer, one of the best cricketer and he had the longest and the biggest
00:44:31six in history.
00:44:32He is good.
00:44:33He is getting old.
00:44:34He can't even play himself.
00:44:35Do you think you could ever ask a boy out on a date?
00:44:52My brother can tell me that he has got a girlfriend, but I can't tell him that I have got a boyfriend.
00:44:58Malala says that you can have a girlfriend, but she can't have a boyfriend.
00:45:02I think she is wrong.
00:45:03It is all up to her.
00:45:04How is that?
00:45:05I have no idea.
00:45:06Breath pit.
00:45:07If there is a boy you like, why can't you pick up the phone and ask him, let's go for
00:45:16a movie?
00:45:17No, it would be quite embarrassing.
00:45:20Another thing is that if my family would know, it would be a surprise for them and they
00:45:26would be astonished.
00:45:27Lana asked a boy.
00:45:28There is Roger Federer.
00:45:29You like him?
00:45:30Yeah.
00:45:31You like tennis or you like his haircut?
00:45:34I like his haircut.
00:45:35They are wasting days.
00:45:36One of my friends, the Taliban stopped their car and showed them the head of a slaughtered
00:45:41man.
00:45:42They said, if you don't follow the real Islam that we are showing you, then you can be the
00:45:49next person like this man.
00:45:50They were not about faith.
00:45:56They were about power.
00:45:57They are the cruel people who are misusing them.
00:45:58They are the cruel people who are misusing them.
00:45:59They said, if you don't follow the real Islam that we are showing you, then you can be
00:46:03the next person like this man.
00:46:12They are the enemies of Islam.
00:46:31They used to bring innocent people to the square, sometimes shoot them in the square and
00:46:50sometimes slaughter them in the square.
00:46:53They used to leave a note on the body, if you go against Taliban, this could be you tomorrow.
00:47:07Many people, they thought that if they speak, they will be killed the very next day.
00:47:16I was feeling that if I don't speak, I would be the most sinful and the most guilty man in this world.
00:47:32As a school boy, the hardest times were the moment when a teacher asked me to stand and
00:47:39read a passage from a book.
00:47:44Tell me about your father's stammer.
00:47:47When he talks?
00:47:51Malala.
00:47:52Malala.
00:47:53One thing that I noticed in my father, even if he stammered for one minute, he would try
00:47:59to say that word.
00:48:00He never stops.
00:48:02If you are stammer, you can just stop it.
00:48:07And you can say another word instead of that.
00:48:10But my father never does that.
00:48:13My father was a very passionate and emotional speaker.
00:48:20A fiery speaker.
00:48:23The most eloquent man I have ever seen in my life.
00:48:28He used to give sermons in the mass every Friday.
00:48:34My father will be shouting and speaking like just bringing out fires.
00:48:43I asked my father.
00:48:44Can you write a speech for me?
00:48:49Oh, look.
00:48:50You utter one sentence in a minute.
00:48:53You stutter, stutter, stammer, stammer.
00:48:56How will you speak to the public?
00:48:57How will you speak to the public?
00:49:01How will you experience the public?
00:49:02How will I be a positive?
00:49:03How will I be a positive?
00:49:04How will I be?
00:49:05How will you?
00:49:07How will you do this?
00:49:10I want you to be a negative generation.
00:49:11How will I be a positive?
00:49:13How will I be a positive?
00:49:14My name was announced.
00:49:17I went to the podium.
00:49:34I was speaking to the people, but I did not see them.
00:49:40And when I ended my speech, one of my teachers came to me and told,
00:49:44I was your deen, you spread the fire.
00:49:50I got encouraged.
00:49:53I didn't keep silent.
00:49:55I spoke.
00:49:58Because this is me.
00:50:06Because this is me.
00:50:08I was speaking to the people.
00:50:12foreign
00:50:18foreign
00:50:24foreign
00:50:30foreign
00:50:40If I keep silent, I think then you lose the right to exist, try to live.
00:50:53If my rights are violated and I keep silent, I should better die than to live.
00:51:10I don't worry about my father. Some of his friends were attacked and some of his friends were killed.
00:51:29The Taliban leader announced my name on his FM radio.
00:51:38I used to change my routine. I used to keep a random kind of schedule.
00:51:48It was really hard to sleep. I could see a lot of scary things.
00:52:00Usually, the Taliban killed people at night time. I would go outside. I would check every door.
00:52:10That gate is closed so they cannot come from that gate. That door is locked so they cannot come from that door.
00:52:20That door is locked so they cannot come from that door.
00:52:26Oh God, protect my father. Protect our family.
00:52:30The Nobel Peace Prize for the average age of the winner is 62.
00:52:40But tonight, the youngest nominee is a 16-year-old girl.
00:52:50Malala is the daughter of the nation. She is doing great work for the girls' education.
00:53:02She is like a role model to all our girls. She is even a favorite now to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
00:53:20If I get it, it would be an honor for me. It would help me in my campaign for girls' education.
00:53:30Malala is a brave, intelligent girl from our valley. She lit the candle of knowledge in our country.
00:53:37Malala was a girl like us. She is inspiring us.
00:53:42She is a good ambassador of Pakistan and we are definitely supporting her.
00:53:47In her hometown today, school children prayed she would win the Nobel.
00:53:59Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
00:54:01The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2013
00:54:08is to be awarded to the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons.
00:54:21We must have made a decision on merit so we should honor it, we should accept it and we should be happy for that.
00:54:31Awards doesn't matter. People have supported me and that is the greatest award I have deserved.
00:54:38Awards don't matter what matters.
00:54:41Ah, really. Change matters. Change matters.
00:54:45Change matters.
00:54:47The Taliban started the campaign that girls' education is against Islam and girls should not go to school.
00:54:59The Taliban started the campaign that girls' education is against Islam and girls should not go to school.
00:55:04The Taliban started the campaign that girls' education is against Islam and girls should
00:55:12not go to school.
00:55:14Education was a threat to them.
00:55:32Education gives you the power to question things, the power to challenge things, to be independent.
00:55:47We are doing scholarships to many guys all around the world.
00:56:03We are doing a lot of work.
00:56:05We are doing a lot of work.
00:56:07We are doing a lot of work.
00:56:08We are doing a lot of work.
00:56:10We are doing a lot of work.
00:56:12Little girls, they are only six, they are only seven, who would be going to other people's
00:56:17houses to clean their houses.
00:56:19And now these girls are getting education.
00:56:26It's very difficult to forget all those good days when I was facing those girls.
00:56:45It was lovely.
00:56:57I dream that one day I'll go back and I will meet all my students, my people.
00:57:06It will be the greatest day, the happiest day of my life.
00:57:29When they came to our town, they bombed three schools in one night.
00:57:55It brought fear.
00:58:00It scared children.
00:58:02They thought that if they go to school, they might be killed.
00:58:13Many international journalists used to go from person to person.
00:58:20Everybody said, no, I can't speak.
00:58:27I can't risk my life.
00:58:34The BBC correspondent said, we need someone to write a diary of Swath.
00:58:41The first girl told her whole story what happened on her day.
00:58:49The next day, her father came to school and told my father that my daughter cannot do this.
00:59:01I did not want her to be killed.
00:59:06My father asked me, would you like to?
00:59:24My mother would say, it's written in the Holy Quran.
00:59:29The truth has to come and falsehood has to die.
00:59:46Every night, the BBC correspondent, he would call me and then I would tell him about what my feelings are and what happened all the day.
00:59:58They changed my name and they gave me a sudden name, Gulmakai.
01:00:05So, you moved houses?
01:00:33This is, you can call it the fourth house.
01:00:36Fourth?
01:00:37Yeah.
01:00:38First, my mother and father, they were in a hostel.
01:00:40Then they moved to an apartment.
01:00:42Then we went to another house for, we stayed there maybe for six, seven months and now we are here.
01:00:49What's your favorite book of all time?
01:00:52No, don't ask difficult questions.
01:00:54I like this book, A Brief History of Time, but it's quite difficult to understand.
01:00:58You have to read like three, four times.
01:01:00And then the book, which is my favorite book, is The Alchemist.
01:01:06Over there, the yellow one.
01:01:09So, there's another book.
01:01:12What is it?
01:01:13Here's another book, it's quite boring.
01:01:16So, this is, I am Malala, written by Malala with Christina and someone has given me an autograph.
01:01:25Someone has signed it.
01:01:26And her name is also Malala.
01:01:28Dear Malala, well done.
01:01:29Keep it up.
01:01:30Best of luck, Malala.
01:01:31Independent says private schools in Pakistan are banning a book written by Malala Yousafzai.
01:01:37The school board president said Malala represented the views of the West.
01:01:41I think there are still many other people who are doing much more for the Pakistani community.
01:01:45That's a big question for us, like why she's getting so much attention.
01:01:49She's getting a lot of fame and I think it's more of a publicity stunt.
01:01:53Malala is the just name of a character.
01:01:59It can be anyone.
01:02:01She's a girl, she don't know anything.
01:02:03I noticed something about you.
01:02:17Yeah?
01:02:18You don't like to talk about your suffering.
01:02:24You're avoiding the question.
01:02:33I am.
01:02:34You're avoiding my question.
01:02:36Of course I am.
01:02:43You don't like to talk about it.
01:02:45I don't know.
01:02:54Every night you would hear the noises of the bomb blasts.
01:03:03And in the morning, the school was no more there.
01:03:15They destroyed more than 400 schools.
01:03:24Finally, the Taliban became so strong, they could make a demand more devastating than their bombs.
01:03:44The Taliban said that no girl can go to school.
01:03:48And if she goes, then you know what we can do.
01:03:54The government decided to take military action against the Taliban.
01:04:13There was fighting everywhere.
01:04:18With millions of others, our family had to leave all beautiful Swat Valley.
01:04:24For three months, we moved from place to place.
01:04:37Refugees in our own country.
01:04:39What's his name?
01:04:53What's his name?
01:04:54What's his name?
01:04:56Malik.
01:04:57What's his name?
01:04:58Malik.
01:04:59There's no schools.
01:05:00Ranin used to go to school because she's six.
01:05:02Yeah.
01:05:03But now they destroyed the schools.
01:05:04No matter where you go in the world, no matter what country, what religion, you will find children who are out of school.
01:05:16In just three years, three million Syrian children are no longer in school.
01:05:31Each day, hundreds cross the border to escape war.
01:05:38People argue about the war and debate about politics, but who is thinking about the children?
01:05:58When we returned home, we were hopeful.
01:06:13But those old, busy roads were vacant.
01:06:20Many houses and schools were destroyed.
01:06:23The Taliban were no more on the roads.
01:06:28But the target killing continued.
01:06:40A beautiful school was used in the fighting.
01:06:52It was a school where I would see my friends every day.
01:07:01Where we would learn every day.
01:07:07It was a school which was giving me hope.
01:07:12Which was building up my future.
01:07:15There is a moment.
01:07:44There is a moment when you have to choose whether to be silent or to stand up.
01:08:00Sometimes some people just say that one should protect his life, protect his family.
01:08:13When I was little, many people would say, change Malala's name.
01:08:22It's a bad name, it means sad.
01:08:26But my father would always say, no.
01:08:30It has another meaning.
01:08:32Bravery.
01:08:33Bravery.
01:08:34The BBC blog, it was very safe.
01:08:58The BBC blog, it was very safe. It was anonymous. But it was not enough.
01:09:11I knew that what the rest would be, standing in front of the camera.
01:09:25He didn't push me. He let me do what I wanted.
01:09:46When every man was losing courage at the battlefield, a woman raised her voice.
01:09:55Speak, Malala. Speak from your heart. Speak what's inside your soul.
01:10:07A woman raised her voice.
01:10:12And a woman raised her voice.
01:10:16the
01:10:44I can't live on the earth or sit here.
01:10:47But when I teach, I will be able to teach the world.
01:10:53And you can't have any knowledge.
01:10:55Yes, I can't.
01:10:57I can't forget that I'm not good, and I'm not good.
01:11:04I can't forget that I'm not good.
01:11:09She was the first one who nabbed them.
01:11:34We started sneaking to the school, going secretly.
01:11:39We only had that.
01:11:54This is not just the name of Manala Yusuf Zahi,
01:11:56but this school is the name of the children who teach their rights,
01:12:00who raise their rights, and who is the honor of their rights
01:12:04and who has a guilt to give them.
01:12:06They never kill a child. I never, never expected that.
01:12:15I have the right to sing, I have the right to go to market, I have the right to speak up.
01:12:21I will get my education if it is in home, school or any place.
01:12:27They cannot stop me.
01:12:36I was in a press club and it was my turn to speak.
01:13:03My friend received a call. Malala's school bus has been attacked.
01:13:33She was taken to a military hospital. The doctors performed an emergency surgery.
01:13:45There were a lot of people in the hospital.
01:13:52Nobody thought that she would survive.
01:13:59There were a lot of people in the hospital.
01:14:06Nobody thought that she would survive.
01:14:12Me and my wife, we cried all the night.
01:14:19Knowing me, we can see a post-preservation inك sometimes.
01:14:22The doctors made the decision to
01:14:47The doctor's made the decision to move her.
01:14:50The plane that she's in now, provided by the United Arab Emirates,
01:14:53a special air ambulance.
01:14:55It wasn't certain that she could survive.
01:14:58A large piece of bone was removed when her brain started swelling.
01:15:02Although she was on very strong antibiotics, she had some infection.
01:15:06Sepsis has got a very high mortality rate.
01:15:09Procedures she will be undergoing in the next week or so
01:15:11is putting a titanium plate over the deficit in her skull.
01:15:14Lala's kidneys have started to shut down.
01:15:16Her blood acid levels had started to rise.
01:15:19Her blood had stopped clotting properly.
01:15:22Lala is still showing some signs of infection.
01:15:24She has undergone a further surgical procedure to repair her left facial nerve.
01:15:28She wasn't moving her right side well.
01:15:30That area of the brain was still not working properly.
01:15:33The second part of the procedure, she'll be undergoing a cochlear implant.
01:15:36She's very worried that survival would be with major disabilities.
01:15:46When she first woke up, she didn't believe that her father was alive.
01:15:56She had got it into her head that he'd been targeted and he was dead.
01:16:01Every time I saw her, she asked me, where's my father?
01:16:09We were thinking, what Malala will be thinking?
01:16:21I was a child.
01:16:28You should have stopped me.
01:16:29What has happened to me is because of you.
01:16:41The doctors told me she will survive.
01:16:46But would she recover?
01:16:47The doctor told me it's just a little bit worse.
01:16:50The doctor told me it's a little bit worse to her.
01:16:53I told her.
01:16:56The doctor told me he was just a little bit worse.
01:17:00And?
01:17:00You should just stick to her mother's here.
01:17:03Yeah?
01:17:04Do you have to fix that?
01:17:06It could have to do.
01:17:07It could have an issue!
01:17:10End?
01:17:11I can't do this.
01:17:13The doctor told me it's just a little bit worse.
01:17:14I can't do it.
01:17:15Oh, it's a little bit worse.
01:17:17There was still a fear that she may not be the same as she was.
01:17:29Would she be able to walk?
01:17:31Would she be able to talk?
01:17:47Would she be able to speak as she used to speak? With the same spirit?
01:18:17It is a miracle that you are here with us today.
01:18:23You had to overcome an attempt on your life.
01:18:28Grievous injuries inflicted by a gun.
01:18:35Months in hospital.
01:18:39You have been taken from your own country that you love.
01:18:47Let me say the words the Taliban never wanted her to hear.
01:18:53Happy 16th birthday, Malala.
01:19:04It is an honor for me to be speaking again after a long time.
01:19:10Thank you to every person who has prayed for my fast recovery in a new life.
01:19:18The Taliban shot me on the left side of my forehead.
01:19:23They shot my friends too.
01:19:25They thought that the bullet would silence us.
01:19:31But nothing changed except this.
01:19:35Weakness, fear and hopelessness died.
01:19:39Strength, power and courage was born.
01:19:42I am the same Malala.
01:19:48My ambitions are the same.
01:19:51My hopes are the same.
01:19:53And my dreams are the same.
01:19:55We realize the importance of light when we see darkness.
01:20:08We realize the importance of our voice when we are silenced.
01:20:15We believe in the power and the strength of our words.
01:20:29Today is the day of every woman, every boy and every girl who have raised their voice for their rights.
01:20:40Let us pick up our books and our pens.
01:20:53They are our most powerful weapons.
01:20:57One child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world.
01:21:08I have been given a new life.
01:21:33And this life, this life is a sacred life.
01:21:38One more game of snack.

01:22:12What are you saying?
01:22:13Your father is drinking.
01:22:14I didn't say, I didn't say.
01:22:15I didn't say.
01:22:16No, it's just a game.
01:22:17Malale, she made a choice.
01:22:20I might get shot, but I'm going to do it.
01:22:23But your father made the choice to pick this life for you.
01:22:28No.
01:22:29One, two, three, go.
01:22:38My father only gave me the name Malale.
01:22:40He didn't make me Malale.
01:22:49I chose this life.
01:22:52It was not forced on me.
01:22:54It was not told to me to live such kind of life.
01:22:57I chose this life and now I must continue it.
