Before The War - Afghanistan, with artist Samira Kitman
In this special episode of Conflict of Interest, we hear what Afghanistan was like for a young girl growing up in Kabul before the Taliban retook power - a girl who dreamed of being a famous artist. Calligrapher and miniaturist Samira Kitman discovered art as a young woman, allowing her to travel the world before threats to her freedom and fear of violence forced her to flee her home. To see a visualisation of Samira's story in comic book form, head to @thefakepan on Instagram.
