## Resource

For two decades, Afghan women had freedom. Then everything changed in an instant with the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban in 2021 amid the withdrawal of Western troops. Ehsanullah Amiri, the 2024 recipient of Postmedia’s Michelle Lang Fellowship, joins Dave Breakenridge to discuss the conditions under which women now live in Afghanistan, what their lives were like prior to the Taliban takeover, and why the story resonates nearly four years later.
