A moment of history.
“FREE AFGHAN WOMEN”
Manizha Talash of Afghanistan in the first ever Olympic Breaking competition. She loses her qualifier but not before unveiling a cape from underneath her jumper.
Representing the refugee team, Talash is Afghanistan’s first female breaker.
Her father was abducted by insurgents, she became the main breadwinner at home and meanwhile a suicide bomber targeted her breaking club in Kabul.
Then the Taliban took over Afghanistan last August and she was forced to flee.
She told @bbcworldservice @KawoonKhamoosh:
“If I'd stayed in Afghanistan, I don't think I'd exist. They'd execute me or stone me to death.”
Her statement may get her DSQ’d by the IOC but this is bigger than sport.
