A: One boulder at a time

Today, Afghan President Hamid Karzai reversed recent measures that would have effectively allowed for legalized marital rapes in Shiite marriages. A measure that should never have been included in the recent law but an important step worth noting. Earlier in the week, women in Afghanistan risked their lives to protest the law and Karzai also received substantial backlash from much of the global community for allowing such archaic and disgraceful practices to continue against Afghanistan's minority women.
