Explanation:

Malala You sa f z ai is a young girl from the Sw a t valley in Pakistan who was shot on the head by the Taliban for opposing their di k tat of no education for girls. And in that act of shooting her, the teenage girl grew to become one of the leading voices for the importance of education for girls and would become a worldwide activist for the same.

In her speech at the United Nations, Malala emphasized her purpose;

"I speak – not for myself, but all girls and boys.

I raise my voice – not so that I can shout, but so that those without a voice can be heard.

Those who have fought for their rights:

Their right to live in peace. Their right to be treated with dignity. Their right to equality of opportunity.

Their right to be educated."

And talking about the Taliban and their failed attempt at trying to silence her from advocating for the rights of girls to get an education, she only turned out stronger. She declares "They thought that the bullets would silence us. But they failed. And then, out of that silence came, thousands of voices."

This shows that the Taliban shot her out of fear for what she represents.
