1. I am interested in researching about the plight of Afghan women under the Taliban in Afghanistan. I would like to research about this specific human rights violation because it is interesting to me to find out more about the Taliban has impeded the progress of Afghanistan by persecuting Afghan women. It is also interesting to understand how this human rights violation has allowed terrorism to prosper and continue there, as they are able to oppress women at every level possible.
2. Sources that discuss past and current investigations (books and articles) of the treatment of Afghan women under the Taliban:

These are just only a few!
3. Questions: What caused the Taliban to begin their oppression of Afghan?
In what ways did international support help stop this oppression?
