The long tail of the 9/11 attacks for one Afghan family

The 25th anniversary of the September 11th, 2001 attacks on the United States are being observed across the U.S. Those events left marks on countless lives across this country and you can hear and read that coverage at our website. Because our podcast has a global focus, we’re going to hear how those events impacted someone overseas— a woman in Afghanistan. We hear about her journey in the quarter century since the attacks and the life-changing decision for her family that she was forced to make.
