Abstract
Just over a dozen years ago, Barry Rodrigue heard about a poet and teacher in Afghanistan, named Painda Khan, from his son [Hewad] and his future son-in-law [Atal], who were students in North America. Professor Khan was described as a highly principled and inspirational educator, one who stood for free-thought in Afghanistan’s communities and classrooms. He encouraged critical thinking, independent from dogmas of all kinds.
