Please join us for this special event: the Canadian launch of Malalai Joya's book, A Woman Among Warlords: The Extraordinary Story of an
Afghan Who Dared to Speak Out, which Kirkus Reviews calls, "A chilling, vital memoir that
reveals hidden truths about Afghanistan and directly addresses the
misguided policies of the United States." 

Co-written
with StopWar activist and writer Derrick O'Keefe, A Woman Among
Warlords is an important and timely book. Malalai Joya's personal story
is inspiring, and her political message is an uncompromising appeal for
an end to NATO's occupation of Afghanistan and the impunity of the
warlords in the Karzai regime. Don't miss this rare chance to hear Malalai Joya
in person.

Suggested donation: $5-10. All proceeds will go towards Malalai Joya's humanitarian projects in Afghanistan. 

Organized by StopWar.ca.

Women - Canada, rabble.ca, Iranian Centre for Peace, Freedom and Social
Justice.
