Across twenty years of US-backed government, Afghan women obtained legal degrees, became judges, and set out to transform their country--tackling corruption, challenging traditional gender norms, and reducing horrifying levels of violence against women and children. These educated and powerful women led the mission to build Afghanistan as a modern democracy that respected the rule of law and human rights. Their work, however, posed an existential threat to everything the Taliban believed in--and when the United States withdrew in August 2021, the women judges of Afghanistan faced mortal danger. Escape from Kabul is the extraordinary, never-before-told story of their escape--with the assistance of the International Association of Women Judges--and the shocking fates of those who were unable to flee. Veteran journalist Karen Bartlett had unique access to many of the women involved, including those in exile and the judges still trapped in Afghanistan, as well as women judges from around the world who were vital to the escape effort. Combining real-life drama with searing critique, Escape from Kabul is also an indictment of the West--which abandoned its allies and the cause of women's rights. The book closes with the judges' recommendations for their beloved country, in their own words.
