The Taliban just legalized child marriage. This is not Islam. It is a perversion of it.

But as the U.S. rushes to condemn this decree, here's what we need to reckon with: 36 Oklahoma Republicans voted to block a ban on child marriage just last month, and more than 30 states still have none.

I analyze the horrors that the Taliban is inflicting, the U.S. complicity, and what legal tools we have to fight back and protect women and girls in Afghanistan and globally.
