She knew what she was doing, and she knew she would get disqualified, and she knew she would never have the chance to get such a platform again to remind everyone what has happened to Afghan women so she took it.

I watched that qualifying match for her. It was her. And a b-girl named India. Talash didn't win the match , and everyone cheered for her when she had that sign. So I am not sure she was disqualified vs. lost her match.

Edit: just looked it up, yeah she was disqualified, apologies.
