Respond in 250 words MLA format; After reading the resources for the week, consider the parallels you see between the concerns about women’s roles expressed by Wollstonecraft and/or Woolf (in A Vindication of the Rights of Woman )by Mary Wollstonecraft and Shabana Basij-rasikh (in the Dare to Educate Afghan Girls TED Talk from this weeks resources). Then, in your initial post, explain these parallels (using specifics) and explore why it is important for us to understand the arguments of Wollstonecraft and Woolf to help address some of the issues explored by Basij-rasikh.
