#PDF_Download A Different Kind of Daughter [Paperback] [Mar 09, 2017] Maria Toorpakai by Maria Toorpakai
Maria Toorpakai hails from Pakistan's violently oppressive northwest tribal region, where the idea of women playing sports is considered haram-un-Islamic-forbidden—and girls rarely leave their homes. But she did, passing as a boy in order to play the sports she loved, thus becoming a lightning rod of freedom in her country's fierce battle over women's rights.
