A year ago, a Taliban armed with a pistol shook the conscience of the entire world when he shot a young girl who defied the Taliban’s diktat and campaigned for the rights of girls to proper education in Pakistan. The young girl who was shot point-blank defied death as she did the Taliban.

A year later, far from succumbing to the threat, Malala Yousafzai has become a symbol of hope in a world ravaged by violence and brutality. Narrating about the initial threat in her autobiography, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban, co-written by Christina Lamb, who is one of the world’s leading foreign correspondents, and published by Little, Brown and Company (October 2013), Malala said that she was not scared but had started making sure the gate was locked at night and asking God what happens when one dies.

Aware that the threat could become a reality, Malala used to consider what she would do if the Taliban shot her. She was even thinking, “May be, I’d take off my shoes and hit him.”

And on October 9, 2012, Malala was returning from school when a bearded man stopped the bus and asked, “Who is Malala?” The 20-odd girls tucked inside the white three-bench Toyota truck which was used as a school bus were frightened. No one said anything but “that’s when he lifted up a black pistol” and the girls screamed.

The bearded man fired three shots, “the first went through my left eye socket and out under my left shoulder. I slumped forward onto Moniba, blood coming from my left ear, so the other two bullets hit the girls next to me…My friends later told me the gunman’s hand was shaking as he fired.
