You can find out more about Malalai Joya by checking out this story on the website for PBS's NOW (what TV ought to be!) which includes an interview with Danish filmmaker Eva Mulvad who has made an inspiring documentary about Joya's underground (for her safety) campaign to be elected to the parliament. And, as is typical of NOW, you will find plenty of web extras.

My intention is that we highlight many more stories like this one and far more often...
