The sessions are organized by Rangina Hamidi, the resource centre's director and head of Afghans for a Civil Society, a human-rights group. Ms. Hamidi, 29, was raised and educated in the United States after her family fled Afghanistan in 1981. She was part of the wave of exiles who returned to rebuild after the Taliban fell. Ms. Hamidi did not attend Monday's meeting because she was visiting her family in Virginia. She said her parents and friends are pleading with her to stay in North America. What a telling piece of commentary .. To the local men this woman is a 'carpetbaggger' and a threat to the status quo .. Not surprised she's received death threats .. I'm sure the local women are too afraid to say anything in support of Ms. Hamidi's activities on their behalf .. Triff ..
