Pakistani Teen Malala Yousafzai Shares Nobel Peace Prize : The Two-Way : NPR

Scott Neuman:

Yousafzai, 17, defied the Taliban in her town of Mingora in Swat Valley, near the volatile western frontier dividing Pakistan and Afghanistan. In October 2012, Taliban militiamen boarded a school bus she was on, singled her out and shot her in the left side of the head. Two other girls were also wounded in the attack.

So well deserved.
