Rethink Afghanistan, Rethink Education


While America engages in the New Great Game costing billions of dollars and thousands of American lives, school districts are forced to make cuts to our public education system. This does not help American children. Meanwhile, we also contribute to the resulting trauma, physical/emotional pain, and lack of access to healthcare, education, safe water, and foodstuffs imposed on Afghani children.

And we call ourselves a "civilized" nation.
