As a Pakistani woman I understand the realities of our unjust global environments and societies, and I recognize that systemic oppression is a contributor and exacerbates the impact of communal violence. I am hopeful about working to change that reality through transformative justice. As such, work is not merely a job for me; it is my life’s calling. And the only two things that keep me going are my hope for a better world and education to envision it.
