The first step is for the rest of us to notice

A terrifying article about acid burning in Pakistan (and other countries in that area). Warning: It contains graphic pictures of women who were attacked in this most barbaric way.

I’m linking to it here because, as Nicholas Kristof wrote: “Acid attacks and wife burnings are common in parts of Asia because the victims are the most voiceless in these societies: they are poor and female. The first step is simply for the world to take note, to give voice to these women.”

Please, take note. At the very least, take note.
