Afganistan Girls in the 1960s

Afghan High School Girls, 1967, by Dr. Bill Podlich. "Afghan girls, as well as boys, were educated up to the highschool level, and although girls (and boys) wore uniforms, the girls were not allowed to wear a chadri (burka) on their way to secondary school. Able young women attended college, as did the men." - Peg Podlich.
