AFGHAN WOMEN PURCHASE BURQAS AT A ROADSIDE SHOP IN KABUL
Afghan women purchase burqas at a roadside shop in Kabul May 11, 2003. Women
were forced to wear the all-enveloping burqa during the five year rule of
the fundamentalist Taliban regime, which was toppled by U.S.-led forces late
2001. But despite the departure of the Taliban many women in the cities and
countryside still wear the burqa even though there is no restriction on them
from the present U.S.-backed government. NO RIGHTS CLEARANCES OR PERMISSIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR THIS IMAGE REUTERS/Kamal Kishore

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photo captures a significant moment in the lives of Afghan women as they purchase burqas at a roadside shop in Kabul. Taken on May 11,2003, it serves as a reminder of the oppressive rule imposed by the fundamentalist Taliban regime for five years. During that time, women were forced to wear these all-enveloping garments, symbolizing their loss of freedom and autonomy. Although U. S. -led forces toppled the Taliban in late 2001, many women continue to wear burqas despite no longer facing restrictions from the present U. S. -backed government. This image highlights the complex dynamics surrounding cultural norms and personal choices within Afghan society. The resilience displayed by these women is evident in their determination to maintain their traditions even after liberation from an oppressive regime. It prompts us to question whether this choice is driven by personal preference or societal pressures ingrained over generations. Photographer Kamal Kishore skillfully captures this poignant scene, allowing viewers to reflect upon the struggles faced by Afghan women during turbulent times. The absence of rights clearances or permissions required for this image emphasizes its significance as a testament to historical events rather than commercial use. In essence, this photograph encapsulates both past oppression and present complexities while shedding light on Afghanistan's ongoing journey towards gender equality and individual freedom.
