Just imagine how boring life would be if there was no music in human life. So, imagine what those folks whose lives have been robbed of music must be going through. Life must have been horrible without music! I'm referring to Afghanistan, where the Taliban has outlawed music outright. The National Institute of Music in Afghanistan has been destroyed. But, there is someone who has managed to free 58 of the institute's teenagers and youths from the clutches of the Taliban. These artistes have turned their talents into weapons against the Taliban.
Ahmed Sarmast is the name of the brave man who rescued these artistes from the Taliban and stood up to resurrect and protect his country's music. Sarmast founded the 'National Institute of Music' in 2010 with the goal of taking Afghan music to new heights. Nobody expected the country to be ruled by the Taliban again at the time. When America fled and the Taliban arrived, Ahmad Sarmast chose to leave the nation, but not alone; he left Afghanistan with his 58 students aged between 16 and 20. They were able to make it to Portugal.
