Malalai Joya was invited by WCCN and Women for Peace to come speak in Madison WI for International Women's Day on March 8th. Our only concern was whether or not she would be able to get a visa to travel here. Well, we got the good news that she has gotten her visa! It is exciting to have Malalai as a speaker for this event. If you want to see why this is exciting - take a look at this recent BBC article on Malalai; http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4606174.stm
