GUGGENHEIM: So, we all settled
Pull it up one more time.
MALALA: Yeah, sure .
GUGGENHEIM: Okay, so... Tell me that story.
Okay.
Before I was born...
when I was in the tummy of my mother...
my father would always say a tappa, a Pashtun story.
If you look at the world map...
on the east side, you can find a country called Afghanistan.
Long ago, it had a fight with another country
called England.
The Afghan people, they were losing hope.
And a teenager saw the fighters running away.
She goes up to the mountain.
She raised her voice.
Which simply means...
it is better to live like a lion for one day...
than to live like a slave for a hundred years.
She encouraged the people of Afghanistan.
She led the army to a great victory.
But she was shot...
and she died on that battlefield.
Her name was Malalai.
When I was in coma, I had these terrible dreams.
And I was thinking that I was dead.
NEWSCASTER 1: Lying near death...
NEWSCASTER 2: A 15-year-old was shot
for standing up to the Taliban.
NEWSCASTER 3: Tonight, Malala remains in intensive care.
NEWSCASTER 4: She was shot in the head by the Taliban...
for daring to suggest girls should go to school.
NEWSCASTER 5: Now millions around the world
are watching to see...
if she will die for her cause.
MALALA: When I opened my eyes...
I did not know where I was.
I realized that this is not my country.
And I thought, "No one knows what's my name."
I saw nurses and doctors.
DR. REYNOLDS: When she first woke up,
her first question was...
"Where's my father?"
ZIAUDDIN: We were thinking,
"What Malala will be thinking?"
"I was a child. You should have stopped me.
"What has happened to me is because of you."
MALALA: It is an honor for me to be speaking again...
ZIAUDDIN: Come, Malala, come! What is the problem?
MALALA: I lost my shoes.
It's okay.
(BOTH CONTINUE CONVERSING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
ZIAUDDIN: Atal Khan Yousafzai,
I'm waiting for you to take breakfast.
(WOMEN SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE)
MALALA: This is my youngest brother.
He's a really good boy. He has a lot of energy.
He would demand us that,
"Oh, I want to play golf, and I want to"...
This is the laziest one.
You see? Look at the first impression!
ZIAUDDIN: One, two, three. Start.
MALALA: His name is Khushal Khan Yousafzai, and...
and he's a okay boy.
Wait, wait, wait!
You don't get to use two hands.
KHUSHAL: This is Malala Yousafzai.
She's the naughtiest girl on the earth.
One, two, three, go.
It's not fair.
Come on, then.
No!
KHUSHAL: People think that she is really kind
and she speaks for people's rights...
but that's not true.
In home, she is so violent.
MALALA: I'm not violent!
I would request my brother...
not to say any bad thing about me.
He should only praise me.
I play with them, I fight with them.
I get a little bit naughty, but that's fine.
That's my right.
She's a little bit naughty. That much.
GUGGENHEIM: What does she do?
She just slaps me every time when I meet her.
When I come from school.
When my brother's fighting with me,
you come and rescue me.
When I go to your room, you slap me there as well!
ATAL: That's kind of confusing.
Save me from one and hit me in the other one.
He's saying I beat Khushal and then I protect Atal...
but when I take him to my room,
then I myself give him a slap.
She slap on my... ZIAUDDIN: It's out of love.
MALALA: It's just for love.
It is not a love!
It is a sign of love. It's a sign of...
how much I love you and...
ZIAUDDIN: Compassion.
...how sweet and cute you are for me.
That's why I give you a slap on your face.
When you laugh, do you get any pain down here?
MALALA: No. Okay.
This place is tight. This one.
These ones.
Say "special". Special.
Now say "feel." Feel.
"Freddy." Freddy.
No pain when you stretch it like that?
Mmm-hmm.
There it feels a little bit tight.
The nerve doesn't seem to stimulate this muscle?
That's unlikely to come back. The damage was too severe.
CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR: It's okay. Look there.
MALALA: When I was in Pakistan,
it was a different world for me.
Here, I have just spent one year only.
I don't really understand this new society
and these new rules.
MALALA: Oh, dear! It's a dog!
WOMAN: Sorry, Malala.
MAN: You all right? It's fine.
I want people to learn from the experience I had...
and the story of my life.
They want you alone, so look there, and then there.
So, the name of the show is The Daily Show?
Very nice to see you. Nice to see you.
Okay, straight.
AMANPOUR: The Queen of England has invited you to the Palace.
MARGARET WARNER: With all these public appearances,
do you have any semblance of a normal life?
Take a deep breath. Just relax your hands.
Look to this side.
No, you're good. Thank you. You're very good.
Which camera now? Well...
I'm done.
MALALA: We couldn't go to market,
we were not allowed to go to school.
And that's why I spoke,
because I believe in equality...
and I believe that there is no difference
between a man and a woman.
I even believe that a woman is more powerful than men.
What? Wait.
ZIAUDDIN: You should teach me how to use the Twitter. Hmm?
It's your next tweet.
ZIAUDDIN: No, you didn't find it.
Yeah, I have it.
Do you want to write something with it?
Mmm...
No, it's okay. It's self-explanatory.
Just send a link to all, to everybody.
Let me see your Facebook.
Why don't I know how to tweet yet?
This is very bad.
MALALA: Tweeted.
It's tweeted? Mmm-hmm.
Papa, look down.
ZIAUDDIN: When she was very small,
many friends used to come to our home.
We used to talk about politics,
we used to talk about the basic rights...
and she used to sit with us.
MALALA: When I was young, I used to listen to him.
Like, what is he saying, how he talks.
ZIAUDDIN: We became dependent on each other.
Like one soul in two different bodies.
Who would you have been if you were just an ordinary girl
from the Swat Valley?
If I was an ordinary girl in Swat Valley...
I'm still an ordinary girl.
But if I had an ordinary father
and an ordinary mother...
and a conservative family...
then I would have two children now.
So this would have been my future.
You would have seen Malala sitting with her two babies.
GUGGENHEIM: You named her after a girl who spoke out...
and was killed for speaking out.
It's almost as if you said...
"She will be separate from the world,
"she will be an activist abroad.
"She'll be different from all the other women
"in Swat and Pakistan."
You are right.
ZIAUDDIN: It was very early in the morning...
when the night goes,
and the morning and the day comes.
A girl, whose mother was helping my wife
in the delivery of the child, came to me.
She told me,
"A child has come to your home."
It was a kind of attachment
from the very first moment I saw her.
A few days after, my cousin brought the family tree.
It traced back for 300 years.
No woman was mentioned. Only men were there.
I took the pen, draw a line...
and wrote "Malala."
RADIO HOST: Malala, thank you for joining us.
Thank you so much.
The Taliban have said that if you return to Pakistan,
they will kill you.
How do you feel about such threats?
MALE NEWS ANCHOR: On the one-year anniversary
of Malala's attack...
the Taliban said they would target her again.
FEMALE NEWS ANCHOR: Malala has often said
she wants to return to Pakistan...
in spite of the death threats.
DR. REYNOLDS: The bullet hit Malala's forehead...
shattering her skull inwards.
Fragments of bone were driven into her brain.
DR. ROSSER: The bullet destroyed both her eardrum
and the tiny bones within the middle ear.
MALALA: My father said, "Have you forgiven them?"
GUGGENHEIM: All this time, you've never felt angry?
No.
Not even as small as an atom,
or maybe a nucleus of an atom...
or maybe a proton, or maybe a quark.
GUGGENHEIM: Never angry?
Never.
Islam teaches us humanity...
equality, forgiveness.
It doesn't matter for me if my left side
of my face isn't working...
or if I cannot blink this eye properly.
It doesn't matter for me if I can't smile properly.
It doesn't matter that I'm not hearing in this ear.
I can't hear.
When the Taliban came to Swat,
everyone thought that they are good people.
(MULLAH FAZLULLAH SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
ZIAUDDIN: Mullah was very charming...
very popular in the area.
He was the talk of the town. Everybody used to discuss him.
(FAZLULLAH CONTINUES SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
MALALA: He was called "Radio Mullah"...
and he would give sermons on the radio every day.
MALALA: His sermons could be heard by everyone in the town.
The most popular part of his show came every evening...
when he would read out people's names.
People liked to hear which of their neighbors was sinful.
MALALA: We lived only 100 miles
from our capital, Islamabad...
but we were separated by a great mountain pass.
And for a time,
our isolation meant we lived in a paradise.
Life was normal, life was happy.
I was able to go to the streets
and play with my friends.
Play hide-and-seek and running games.
I miss the dirty streets.
I miss the river.
I miss my friends.
In this new school, it's quite difficult.
To be really honest...
I don't feel comfortable when people can see my legs.
So my skirt is longer than most of the girls'.
And then, my life is quite different than their life.
Most of them have boyfriends.
Most of them have broke up with some of the boyfriends
and found new ones.
It's quite difficult to tell girls who really I am.
I don't know whether they would like me,
or whether they're interested in me.
In Kenya, there are so many girls who cannot go to school.
MALALA: Grade nine? Up to which grade?
I lived in this country.
I was born in this country called Pakistan...
I was born in Swat Valley.
There are more than 180 million people.
Most of them are youth.
So, who wants to become a doctor?
You want to.
The number one is wheat.
Number two is rice.
Number three is maize.
Who wants to study history?
That's great.
It's called K2.
It comes through these valleys
and goes down, down, down, and through Sindh.
What do you want to be?
On this side? Yeah.
The girls whose mother or father is educated,
they should raise up their hands.
ZIAUDDIN: I loved education. I loved to be a teacher.
I started my own school...
just with $150.
We hired a small building.
I was the sweeper.
I was the manager.
I was the headmaster.
The very first day of my school,
I stood and I recited the national anthem.
There were three students, and it started.
MALALA: I used to be in school all the day.
I loved the way teacher was speaking.
And I loved the way the students
were listening carefully to the teacher...
being all around with other girls and with teachers.
I put in my student a kind of rebel
against traditions, customs...
and how to raise their voice.
MALALA: I could not even speak properly, but...
in my own language
I would try to give lectures to the empty classrooms.
School was my home.
Moniba was here and then I was sitting next to her.
Here was I.
And here was Shazia, and here was Kainat.
The Talib came here...
and I was just very near to him...
and then he asked, "Who is Malala?"
This is an easy one.
Okay, choose a card in all these cards
and then remember it.
Now see my tricks.
This is your card.
How do you do this?
MALALA: The next two bullets hit Shazia and Kainat.
GUGGENHEIM: Where did the bullet hit you?
This right arm. Here.
SHAZIA: This is the inside, and this was outside.
MALALA: Two bullets hit Shazia.
SHAZIA: And was my shoulder.
MALALA: The bullet that hit her
in her left shoulder hit Kainat.
So one bullet hit two of them...
and one bullet went through the hand of Shazia.
(FAZLULLAH SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
ZIAUDDIN: Mullah Fazlullah might be
the first person in our history...
to talk directly to women in Swat.
He was a Pashto speaker...
and he talked to people in their own language.
MALALA: Sometimes he would say,
"Men, go outside now. I'm talking to the women."
(FAZLULLAH SPEAKING ON SPEAKERS)
ZIAUDDIN: He took them into confidence.
He used to talk to women about their issues directly.
(FAZLULLAH SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
ZIAUDDIN: You see, our women are illiterate...
ignorant from all other kind of information.
When all other windows are closed...
and the only window that is open to their mind
that is Fazlullah's window...
ultimately that man will have an effect on them.
MALALA: Like many women from Swat,
my mother used to cover her face.
Not for religion, but for tradition.
Now in the U.K., she does not cover her face.
She only covers her hair.
MALALA: Sometimes she says, "Don't shake hand with men.
"Look down. Don't look at men. It's a shame."
And I said, "If men can look at me,
"why can't I look at them?"
She told me many times...
"Cover your face because
"people would think you are not a nice girl."
MALALA: But covering my face was something that...
made me feel like I was just hiding my identity, who I was.
MALALA: I think she's not independent or free...
because she's not educated.
GUGGENHEIM: What are those yellow Post
MALALA: I want to increase my vocabulary...
because now I'm living in an English society...
and I want to have good vocabulary.
GUGGENHEIM: I see "cat burglar."
Why do you care about the word "cat burglar"?
MALALA: Because I know what's a cat,
but I didn't know what's a burglar.
So I have written...
"Cat burglar: a thief who enters a building...
"by climbing to an upper story."
School is quite complicated.
It's really hard to find way.
So there are blue stairs, red stairs, green stairs.
It's good that they colored it,
otherwise I would have been lost in my school.
ATAL: She does all of her homework all the day.
From 5:00 until 11:00 or 1:00, she does all her homework.
GUGGENHEIM: Why?
I don't know.
EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY OFFICIAL: I award you
the honorary degree of Master of Arts.
I think she's addicted to books. That's all I know.
GUGGENHEIM: It's a terrible problem.
Yeah. No, not really.
MALALA: In Swat, I was considered to be
the top girl in the class.
Getting high marks, good behavior.
Nice to teachers, intelligent...
Here, it's hard. It's really difficult.
(MALALA SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE)
JUDE KELLY: She's not going to take questions this morning.
Although she is a profoundly influential world leader...
she's also doing her GCSEs.
Some people think, "Malala is lucky, she's now with...
"Hillary Clinton, she's with Bono,
"she's with rock stars."
But on the other side, I get homework as well.
GUGGENHEIM: Rock stars don't need to do homework.
I think rock stars are lucky.
When I told my school
I wouldn't be at school for one week...
the teachers gave me extra homework.
Shall I show you my tests and how much marks do I get?
GUGGENHEIM: Yeah, show me.
MALALA: It's really embarrassing.
This is the biology test. I got 73%.
I'm good in the first questions,
which is all about hormones.
My name's Malala.
NORAH O'DONNELL: Is it true that when you spoke
with President Obama...
you talked about your concern
that drone attacks are fuelling terrorism?
Yes, of course.
Because I missed that lesson,
I got only 1% in this question out of four.
(CHILDREN SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE)
MALALA: This is unfortunately Physics.
GUGGENHEIM: What did you get?
MALALA: In Physics, I got 61%.
GUGGENHEIM: So what do the girls do
if they don't go to school?
They clean dishes...
They buy things for other people.
I don't really know.
They clean dishes and they do their stuff.
What's so wrong with that?
I don't really know, but it's bad.
MALALA: My mother, she was very beautiful.
Green eyes, maroon color hair, fair skin.
When she was five,
she was admitted to school by my grandfather.
She was the only girl in her class.
She realized that all her female cousins
were not going to school.
They were playing in the fields.
At that time,
when you sold something,
in return you would either get food...
you would either get corn and flour.
She got candies.
Nobody asked her, "Where are your books?
"Why are you not going to school?"
That was the end of her education.

and they used to make a heap
of all the computers, TVs, CDs...

MALALA: They did not want us to watch the television.
And if they heard it, ever,
they would come into your house by force...
they would take your TV
and they would burn your television.
Please can you put the banana on the plate.
On the plate?
Yes.
Please pick up number 10.
GUGGENHEIM: Is your mother happy here?
I think she is not that happy
because she doesn't have friends.
She don't know the language well.
But I think she will get used to it.
My mother is like, the best mom, I think, ever.
Maybe you have a special connection to your mother.
Yeah, she loves me.
I'm the favorite one. Yeah, I'm her favorite one.
Not Malala?
Quarter past...
Seven. Yes.
ZIAUDDIN: The first time I saw her, she was 14.
I was dark in color...
so my physical appearance was not good in my eyes.
And I thought that I'm not a handsome boy.
I had not beauty, she had not education.
She saw her completion in me
and I saw my completion in her.
GUGGENHEIM: Is it unusual to have a marriage of love?
ZIAUDDIN: Love marriage in America
and love marriage in Pakistan...
are very different things.
You can't have dates,
you can't have romantic meetings.
You only see someone, she sees you...
and the next step is not any dating or any meeting.
The next step is to tell your father and mother,
"I want that girl."

They think that God is a tiny, little, conservative being.
But for us, God is not that tiny.

"You are the elected President.
"You need to fulfill your responsibilities.
"And your responsibility is to listen to your people."

I like just to be silent for a while.
Sometimes I feel that I am in England
but it's just for a short time.
I'm not going to live here forever.
When I think of Swat,
I think that it's just a story.
It's something that happened
and I can never see Swat again.
GUGGENHEIM: What would happen if you went back today?
If I would go back, would I be shot?
Of course I would be.
They said, "If you come back we're going to shoot you."
I just want to go once just to see that house.
Just once.
Just look at it.
Atal.
Just let me do something else. This is boring.
She's looking at the pictures.
GUGGENHEIM: Who's that?
Shane Watson.
This is Shane Watson and he's a really good cricket player.
And there's another one as well,
who is one of my favorites.
GUGGENHEIM: I think you like him
more than just for cricket.
No, I just like him for cricket.
And I also like Shahid Afridi.
GUGGENHEIM: Yeah?
MALALA: He's the Pakistani cricketer.
He is an amazing cricketer. One of the best cricketers.
And he had the longest
and the biggest six in history.
ATAL: Oh, this one! It's this one!
See?
COMMENTATOR ON VIDEO: He smashed it miles!
It went miles away.
ATAL: But he's not good anymore.
He is good.
He's getting old. He can't even play.
GUGGENHEIM: Do you think you could ever ask
a boy out on a date?
My brother can tell me
that he has got a girlfriend...
but I can't tell him that I have got a boyfriend.
Malala says that you can have a girlfriend
but she can't have a boyfriend.
I think she's wrong.
It's all up to her.
GUGGENHEIM: Who's that? ATAL: I have no idea.
MALALA: Brad Pitt.
GUGGENHEIM: If there's a boy you like...
why can't you pick up the phone and ask him,
"Let's go to a movie"?
No, it would be quite embarrassing.
And the other thing is that if my family would know,
it would be a surprise for them.
And they would be astonished. "Malala asked a boy?"
And there is Roger Federer.
GUGGENHEIM: You like him? Yeah.
GUGGENHEIM: You like tennis or you like his haircut?
I like his haircut.
MALALA: It's always changing.
One of my friends,
the Taliban stopped their car...
and showed them the head of a slaughtered man.
They said, "If you don't follow the real Islam
"that we're showing you...
"then you can be the next person like this man."
They were not about faith. They were about power.
ZIAUDDIN: They are cruel people
who are misusing the name of Islam.
They are the enemies of Islam.
They used to bring innocent people to the square...
sometimes shoot them in the square
and sometimes slaughter them in the square.
They used to leave a note on the body...
"If you go against the Taliban,
"this could be you tomorrow."
Many people, they thought that if they speak...
they will be killed the very next day.
I was feeling that if I don't speak, I would be the most
sinful and the most guilty man in this world.
As a schoolboy, the hardest times...
were the moments when a teacher asked me to stand
and read a passage from a book.
GUGGENHEIM: Tell me about your father's stammer.
When he talks?
Yeah.
Mmm.
Malala. Malala.
MALALA: One thing that I noticed in my father...
even if he stammers for one minute,
he will try to say that word.
He never stops.
The first time you can just stop it.
And you can say another word instead.
But my father never does that.
ZIAUDDIN: My father was a very passionate
and emotional speaker.
A fiery speaker.
The most eloquent man I have ever seen in my life.
He used to give sermons in the mosque every Friday.
My father would be shouting
and speaking like just bringing out fires.
I asked my father,
"Can you write a speech for me?"
"Oh, look. You utter one sentence in a minute.
"You stutter, stutter, stammer, stammer.
"How will you speak to public?"
My name was announced, I went to the podium...
I was speaking to the people but I did not see them.
And when I ended my speech,
one of my teachers came to me and told...
"Oh, Ziauddin, you spread the fire."
I got encouraged.
I didn't keep silent. I spoke.
Because this is me.
If I keep silent, I think,
then you lose the right to exist.
The right to live.
If my rights are violated and I keep silent,
I should better die than to live.
MALALA: I would worry about my father.
Some of his friends were attacked
and some of his friends were killed.
ZIAUDDIN: The Taliban leader
announced my name on his FM radio.
I used to change my routine.
I used to keep a random kind of schedule.
MALALA: It was really hard to sleep.
I could see a lot of scary things.
Usually, the Taliban killed people at nighttime.
I would go outside...
I would check every door.
"That gate is closed, so they cannot come from that gate."
"That door is locked, so they cannot come from that door."
"Oh, God, protect my father.
"Protect our family."

so we should honor it, we should accept it,
and we should be happy for that.

and that is the greatest award I have deserved.

Really, change matters. Change matters.

The power to challenge things.
To be independent.

who'll be going to other people's houses

And now these girls are getting education.
ZIAUDDIN: It's very difficult to forget all those good days.
When I was facing those girls...
it was lovely.
I dream that one day I'll go back...
and I will meet all my students, my people.
That would be the greatest day,
the happiest day of my life.
(FAZLULLAH SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
ZIAUDDIN: Three schools bombed in Matta.
Two more schools in Charbagh.
One more school in Kabal.
MALALA: When they came to our town,
they bombed three schools in one night.
It brought fear.
It scared children.
They thought that if they go to school
they might be killed.
ZIAUDDIN: Many international journalists
used to go from person to person.
Everybody said, "No, I can't speak.
"I can't risk my life."
The BBC correspondent said...
"We need someone to write a diary of Swat."
MALALA: The first girl told her whole story,
what happened on her day.
The next day,
her father came to school and told my father...
"My daughter cannot do this.
"I do not want her to be killed."
My father asked me, "Would you like to?"
My mother would say,
"It's written in the holy Qur'an...
"that truth has to come and falsehood has to die."
Every night the BBC correspondent
would call me...
and I would tell him what my feelings are
and what happened all the day.
They changed my name and gave me a pseudonym,
Gul Makai.
GUGGENHEIM: So you moved houses?
MALALA: This is, you can call it the fourth house.
GUGGENHEIM: Fourth? Yeah.
First, my mother, father, they were in a hostel.
Then they moved to an apartment.
Then we went to another house.
We stayed there maybe for six, seven months,
and now we are here.
GUGGENHEIM: What's your favorite book of all time?
No, don't ask difficult questions.
I like this book, A Brief History of Time,
but it's quite difficult to understand.
You have to read it three, four times.
And then the book
which is my favorite book, is The Alchemist.
Over there, the yellow one.
So, there's another book, it's quite...
Show me the book. What is it?
Here's another book. It's quite boring.
So this is I Am Malala.
Written by Malala with Christina Lamb.
And someone has given me an autograph.
Someone has signed it.
And her name is also Malala.
"Dear Malala, well done, keep it up.
"Best of luck, Malala."
FEMALE REPORTER: Private schools in Pakistan
are banning a book written by Malala Yousafzai.
MALE REPORTER: The school board president
said Malala represented the views of the West.
There are many other people
who are doing much more for the Pakistani community.
That's a big question for us.
Why she's getting so much attention.
She's getting a lot of fame
and I think it's more of a publicity stunt.
Malala is just name of a character.
It can be anyone.
She's a girl. She don't know anything.
GUGGENHEIM: I've noticed something about you.
Yeah?
GUGGENHEIM: You don't like to talk about your suffering.
GUGGENHEIM: You're avoiding the question.
I am?
You're avoiding my question.
Of course I am.
GUGGENHEIM: You don't like to talk about it.
Well, I don't know.
Every night you would hear the noises of the bomb blasts.
And in the morning, the school was no more there.
They destroyed more than 400 schools.
Finally, the Taliban became so strong...
they could make a demand
more devastating than their bombs.
(FAZLULLAH SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
MALALA: The Taliban said that no girl can go to school...
and if she goes, then you know what we can do.
The government decided
to take military action against the Taliban.
There was fighting everywhere.
With millions of others,
our family had to leave our beautiful Swat Valley.
For three months, we moved from place to place.
Refugees in our own country.
What's his name?
Malik.
There's no schools.
Ranim used to go to school because she's six,
but now they've destroyed the schools.
MALALA: No matter where you go in the world...
no matter what country, what religion...
you will find children who are out of school.
In just three years, 3 million Syrian children
are no longer in school.
Each day, hundreds cross the border
to escape war.
(MALALA GREETS IN ARABIC)
People argue about the war
and debate about the politics...
but who is thinking about the children?
When we returned home we were hopeful.
But those old, busy roads were vacant.
Many houses and schools were destroyed.
The Taliban were no more on the roads,
but the target killing continued.
Our beautiful school was used in the fighting.
It was school where I would see my friends every day.
Where we would learn every day.
It was school which was giving me hope...
which was building up my future.
There is a moment when you have to choose...
whether to be silent or to stand up.
ZIAUDDIN: Sometimes some people just say that...
one should protect his life...
protect his family.
MALALA: When I was little, many people would say...
"Change Malala's name.
"It's a bad name, it means sad."
But my father would always say,
"No, it has another meaning.
"Bravery."
ZIAUDDIN: The BBC blog, it was very safe.
It was anonymous.
But it was not enough.
MALALA: I knew what the risk would be,
standing in front of the camera.
He didn't push me.
He let me do what I wanted.
When every man was losing courage at the battlefield,
a woman raised her voice.
Speak, Malala. Speak from your heart.
Speak what's inside your soul.
(MALALA SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
(FAZLULLAH SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
ZIAUDDIN: She was the first one who named them.
MALALA: We started sneaking to the school.
Going secretly.
(FAZLULLAH SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE ON SPEAKERS)
ZIAUDDIN: They'll never kill a child.
I never, never expected that.
MALALA: I have the right to sing.
I have the right to go to market.
I have the right to speak up.
I will get my education if it is in home,
school or any place.
They cannot stop me.
ZIAUDDIN: I was in a press club
and it was my turn to speak.
My friend received a call.
"Malala's school bus has been attacked."
She was taken to a military hospital.
The doctors performed an emergency surgery.
There were a lot of people in the hospital.
Nobody thought that she will survive.
Me and my wife, we cried all the night.
REPORTER 1: The doctors made the decision to move her.
REPORTER 2: The plane that she's in now,
provided by the United Arab Emirates...
is a special air ambulance...
DR. REYNOLDS: It wasn't certain
that she could survive.
DR. ROSSER: A large piece of bone was removed
when her brain started swelling.
DR. REYNOLDS: Although she was on very strong antibiotics,
she had some infection.
DR. KAYANI: Sepsis has got a very high mortality rate.
DR. ROSSER: The procedure she will be undergoing
in the next week...
is putting a titanium plate over the deficit in her skull.
DR. REYNOLDS: Malala's kidneys had started to shut down.
Her blood acid levels had started to rise.
Her blood had stopped clotting properly.
DR. ROSSER: Malala is still
showing some signs of infection.
She has undergone a further surgical procedure
to repair her left facial nerve.
DR. REYNOLDS: She wasn't moving her right side well.
That area of the brain was still not working properly.
DR. ROSSER: The second part of the procedure
she'll be undergoing a cochlear implant.
DR. REYNOLDS: I was very worried that survival
would be with major disabilities.
When she first woke up,
she didn't believe that her father was alive.
She had got it into her head
that he'd been targeted and he was dead.
Every time I saw her she asked me,
"So where's my father?"
ZIAUDDIN: We were thinking,
"What Malala will be thinking?"
"I was a child. You should have stopped me.
"What has happened to me is because of you."
The doctors told me, "She will survive."
But would she recover?
And...
ZIAUDDIN: Like this. Good.
There was still a fear that
she may not be the same as she was.
Would she be able to walk? Would she be able to talk?
Okay.
(THERAPIST SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)
ZIAUDDIN: Would she be able to speak
as she used to speak?
With the same spirit?
GORDON BROWN: It is a miracle
that you are here with us today.
You had to overcome an attempt on your life.
Grievous injuries inflicted by a gun.
Months in hospital.
You have been taken from your own country
that you love.
Let me say the words
the Taliban never wanted her to hear...
Happy 16th birthday, Malala.
It is an honor for me
to be speaking again after a long time.
Thank you to every person
who has prayed for my fast recovery...
and a new life.
The Taliban shot me
on the left side of my forehead.
They shot my friends, too.
They thought that the bullet would silence us.
But nothing changed except this:
Weakness, fear and hopelessness died.
Strength, power and courage was born.
I am the same Malala.
My ambitions are the same.
My hopes are the same and my dreams are the same.
We realize the importance of light
when we see darkness.
We realize the importance of our voice
when we are silenced.
We believe in the power and the strength of our words.
Today is the day of every woman...
every boy and every girl...
who has raised their voice for their rights.
Let us pick up our books and our pens.
They are our most powerful weapons.
One child, one teacher...
one book and one pen can change the world.
I have been given a new life.
And this life, this life is a sacred life.
ATAL: One more game of Snap.
Oh, yeah, I got some cards here!
MALALA: Okay, so one...
ALL: Two, three, go.
ATAL: One, two, three, go!
MALALA: Khushal, you're not taking the card.
You're so slow.
One, two, three.
Oh!
I'm donkey? I'm your father.
What are you saying? Your father's a donkey.
KHUSHAL: No, it's just a game. MALALA: I didn't say it.
GUGGENHEIM: Malalai, she made a choice.
"I might get shot but I'm gonna do it."
But your father made the choice
to pick this life for you.
No.
My father only gave me the name Malalai.
He didn't make me Malalai.
I chose this life.
It was not forced on me.
It was not told to me to live such kind of life.
I chose this life and now I must continue it.
THORBJO:RN JAGLAND: Ladies and gentlemen...
good morning.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided...
that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2014...
is to be awarded to Malala Yousafzai...
and Kailash Satyarthi.
JAGLAND: A conscience exists in the world...
that extends beyond all boundaries.
It says that children have a right to childhood.
MALALA: I tell my story not because it is unique...
but because it is not.
It is the story of many girls.
I am Malala, but I'm also Shazia.
I'm Kainat. I'm Kainat Soomro.
I'm Mezon. I'm Amina.
I am those 66 million girls who are deprived of education.
I'm not a lone voice, I am many.
And our voices have grown louder and louder.
* I, I'm just a girl
* Living a simple life
* Just one of many
* I, I live in a world
