 AFGHAN WOMEN RESIST          With Sahar Saba of      The Revolutionary 
 Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA)        Sahar Saba is a 
 spokeswoman for the Revolutionary Association of the Women  of Afghanistan. 
 Serving on RAWA’s foreign affairs committee, Sahar has  traveled to many 
 countries in the past several years to speak on behalf of  RAWA. Sahar was 
 born in Kabul; in 1979, her family fled Afghanistan  to the refugee camps 
 in Pakistan to escape the Soviet invasion, and she  was educated at one of 
 RAWA’s underground schools.    xxxxxxxxxxx   RAWA, the Revolutionary 
 Association of the Women of Afghanistan, was  established in Kabul, 
 Afghanistan in 1977 as an independent  political/social organization of 
 Afghan women fighting for human rights  and for social justice in 
 Afghanistan. The founders were a number of  Afghan woman intellectuals, led 
 by Meena, who was assassinated in Quetta,  Pakistan in 1987 by Afghan 
 agents of the KGB. RAWA's objective is to  involve an increasing number of 
 Afghan women in social and political  activities aimed at acquiring women's 
 human rights and contributing to the  struggle for the establishment of a 
 government based on democratic and  secular values in Afghanistan. Despite 
 the suffocating political  atmosphere, RAWA has been involved in widespread 
 activities in different  socio-political arenas including educa! tion, 
 health and income generation  as well as political agitation. Web site:
