The Taliban has published new “vice and virtue” laws which prohibit women in Afghanistan from speaking or showing their faces outside their homes. “Today in Kabul a female cat has more freedom than a woman. A cat may go sit on her front stoop and feel the sun on her face […] A bird may sing in Kabul, but a girl may not in public.” – American actress and activist, Meryl Streep at the U.N. General Assembly on September 23rd 2024.
