Topic: Political Correctness

Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai says that when she met fellow laureate President Obama, she offered him a "very simple" message: Education is the best way to fight terrorism. "I said, 'Instead of sending guns, send books. Instead of sending weapons, send teachers,'" the girl shot in the face by the Taliban two years ago told Ronan Farrow at yesterday's Forbes Under 30 Summit; Obama's response, she says, was "pretty political." Meanwhile, Malala learned she'd won the Nobel while in chemistry class, where she stayed as the school day continued normally. And though speaking at the UN didn't make her nervous, she says that speaking at a school assembly after winning the Nobel did. (21/10/14)
