Handmade Jewelry, Home Decor, Clothing and more!! Inspired by �

AchikzaiJewels was started for my love of our watan. Achikzai is the pashtun tribe my father is from. The history, the folk-lore of what each pashtun tribe characteristics are known for are some of the small reasons I am proud to be Afghan.
The bigger reason of why I am so proud to be from the Achikzai tribe though is due to my great aunt Sitara Achikzai. She was my grandfathers younger sister and a light in our family, the happiest, genuine, purest human alive. She dedicated her life to the Afghan people. She was a leading Afghan women's rights activist and a member of the regional parliament in Kandahar.
In April of 2009, my great Aunt was brutally assassinated by the Taliban. They didn’t like how much traction and popularity she was receiving. Their ideals were not aligned with her message. It was a great loss for Afghanistan and for the world, along with her own family in Afghanistan, Germany, Canada and the US.
As I am being interviewed by @voapashto I can not help but think of how life comes full circle. I remember the day my father was listening to @voapashto and found out through the news his beloved Aunt has passed.
I am grateful for the opportunity @voapashto gave me for the interview. Playing a small part to donate through my jewels, to honor my lineage, my aunt and my beloved Afghanistan was healing on such a dark anniversary of my homeland.
Thank you for @humanfirstcoalition for giving an opportunity to heal for Afghan refugees, Afghan-Americans and Afghan Ally’s to support, donate and be educated on the topic through fundraising, music, art and food. It was truly an honor..
