On independence day, my father says to us: "Nations disappear when their people don't care for them". The same applies to daughers... for whom you do not care for, or care for in a way that you call "protection" but only feels like suffocation. Nations dissappear when people do not care about them, and who cared about the daughter of an immigrant father who had to uphold his honor by walking on eggshells? Who cared about the 12 year old that was shunned for not wearing a dupatta while boys older than her celebrated independence day on the street? Nations dissappear when people do not care about them, but who cares about the girls that just wanted a hug from their parents? Who cares about the over-achieving student, the one that leaves her work to cook, the one who becomes the marriage counselor for her own mother? And when you sing "Is Parcham Kay Saye Talay, Hum Ek Hain" are we excluded? Are our opportunities, our dreams, our desire to be treated like humans not a part of it? When do the daughters of our nations gain freedom? When is their independence day?

Pakistani Independence Day is observed annually on August 14 to commemorate the day Pakistan achieved independence from the British Raj in August of 1947. Pakistani leader Muhammad Ali Jinnah addressed the nation, "you are free; you are free to go to your temples. You are free to go to your mosques or to any other places of worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion, caste or creed—that has nothing to do with the business of the state."
