We speak to Socialist Seattle City Councilmember Kshama Sawant about the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai, who has expressed support for socialism. In 2012, Yousafzai was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman who boarded her school bus, but she survived and continued to campaign for the rights of girls to go to school. While she was recovering in England, she sent a message to a meeting of Pakistani Marxists in Lahore that โI am convinced Socialism is the only answer and I urge all comrades to take this struggle to a victorious conclusion. Only this will free us from the chains of bigotry and exploitation.โ โI think sheโs right on the mark,โ Sawant responds. โAll the places which have been the target of brutal imperialism from the West โฆ where is the solution to all of this? The only solution can be on the basis of rejecting capitalism.โ Sawant also comments on the Indian child labor rights Kailash Satyarthi, who was jointly awarded this yearโs Nobel Peace Prize with Yousafzai.
