It might not be in the U.S. news but Afghanistan is still around. And reporter Dexter Filkins is still over there -- investigating, and reporting.
Being in Filkins' shoes for even 24-hours would be worldly impressive. An eye-opener. And he keeps going day-after-day, month-after-month, year-after-year. I feel small when listening to him.
And near the end of the interview when he humbly talks about buying a school bus so that the female students would be safe going to and from school -- simply doing the right thing, but noble at the same time.
