Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari

Another woman who is no stranger to trouble, tragedy, or terrorism is Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari, the 18-year-old daughter of late Pakistan Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. And now Bakhtawar is letting her own voice be heard, writing and producing a rap called "I Would Take Away The Pain" about her mother, who was assasinated in December 2007. Bakhtawar's tribute was uploaded to YouTube this week and gives a chilling account of her mother's slaying and also praises her mom for her courage as an activist. This young woman's own courage for creating such an honest song should be praised as well.
