Angelina Jolie interviews Bibi Aisha, who appeared on the August 9, 2010 cover of TIME.
In the interview, Aisha recalls the terrible night she was taken up a mountain and tied hand and foot, her husband and other Taliban members discussing whether she deserved to be mutilated or executed. They cut off Aisha’s nose and ears and left her to die.
Somehow she found the strength to find help. “A power walked with me that night,” she said.
Aisha talks to Angelina about the suffering of people in Afghanistan today: “I put myself in the shoes of an Afghanistan woman. They had freedom for 20 years, and then suddenly they shut down everything for them. And they don’t have any rights.”

My heart goes out to the people of Syria and Turkey. It’s hard to grasp the unimaginable pain so many families are suffering at this time. I was sent this by a friend, from inside North West Syria. I have chosen to support @the_whitehelmets and to @turkishphilanthropyfunds . I hope others consider giving too, so they can continue their lifesaving work.

I had the pleasure of participating in a Bee School a few weeks ago at a primary school in Clichy-sous-Bois, France, to teach the kids the key role bees play as pollinators to our food safety and in biodiversity conservation. The class was lovely. Brilliant young minds asking great questions. Children always understand quickly what adults often try to overcomplicate or excuse. There were many smiles except when they realized that without bees there was no chocolate!
We discussed how the disappearance of bees is a worldwide phenomenon which is endangering biodiversity.
These are the kinds of committed daily actions you can do with your kids at home:
1. Plant ‘melliferous’ – pollen and nectar-rich plants – to create a safe habitat and substantial food source for bees.
2. Set up your own bee waterer at home. Bees need water, not only to quench their thirst, but also to nurse developing larvae and keep their nests cool during summer.
This is how you can create a safe bee waterer at home:
* Grab a large bowl, not made of plastic or aluminum. It is important that the materials are porous or mineral, so that the bees can have a better grip and avoid drowning. Such materials let water fill in the little gaps more easily, allowing bees to drink.
* Add water and rocks, stones and/or pebbles. Corks can also be a good alternative.
* Place the waterer in your garden. Bees must be able to access it easily, so it should be left out in the open, in a large enough area that is free of any safety hazards.

I wanted to share these photos and stories sent to me by some of the 300 female volunteers with @the_whitehelmets in #Syria. They identify unexploded bombs, carry out search and rescue operations to save victims of bombings and the recent earthquake, treat the injured and run health centers, working alongside their male colleagues.
Being denied rights doesn’t stop women from doing everything they can to protect others. Across the world women are fighting for their lives and families. More support for them, stronger responses to violence against them, leads to a more stable and just world.
