You’ll never see the iconic photo of the ‘Afghan Girl’ the same way again
It’s one of the most iconic photographs. An Afghan girl, fixating the viewer with her green eyes, filled with anxiety. You’ve seen it. Turns out the backstory is very different from the one originally told. The article is almost a year old, but somehow only came to my attention now. It deserves a lot of attention.
From Weekly Filet #289, in May 2020.
