The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.

On May 22nd, the Taliban reinstated an old law that requires female news anchors to cover their faces. Proof of this new law was seen on-air as female news anchors were seen with masks that allowed only their eyes to be seen across all popular news channels in the country. TOLO news anchor, Farida Sial, told the BBC, "it's very difficult for a presenter to cover their face for two or three hours consecutively and talk like that." Many male anchors took a stand in solidarity with their female colleagues by also wearing masks in their news reports and using the hashtag #FreeHerFace. An Afghan women's rights activist, Mina Sharif, tweeted, "Afghan men showing up for Afghan women is not just a gesture. It's a turn in the story that will change everything. Bravo, brothers."
