Learning Music, Listening To Music, Playing Music – Now A Crime In Afghanistan:
Ahmad Sarmast, now based in Braga, Portugal, directs the Afghanistan National Institute of Music with a steadfast mission to protect Afghan musical heritage from erasure. Established in 2010 under Kabul's US-backed government, the institute symbolized progress and women's empowerment through music.

Religious Minorities In Afghanistan:
Under Taliban rule in Afghanistan, religious freedom has significantly deteriorated, especially for religious minorities such as Hindus, Sikhs, and Christians. The Taliban enforces strict interpretations of Sharia law, imposing severe restrictions on these groups, including limitations on their attire and public religious ceremonies. Additionally, terrorist organizations like ISIS pose further threats to religious minorities, exacerbating their vulnerability to harassment and persecution.
