I was lucky to see Yasin Farid during his first ever visit to the U.S. Yasin is the country manager in Afghanistan for PARSA, an NGO that is run by Fran's sister Marnie. They showed a short documentary made about their efforts to educate children in Afghanistan in the shadow of the Taliban (who don't want any females to be students or teachers).
