Malala attended a school her father, Ziauddin Yousafzai, founded. On September 2008, Malala gave out a speech, after the Talibans attacked the girls' school in Swat. The title of her talk is "How dare the Taliban take away my basic right to education". In early 2009, Yousafzai wrote blogs for BBC about her living under the Taliban's threats to deny her an education.
