Background
[edit]Hazara opened her restaurant in order to provide local women with a meeting place, and to offer employment to women from the Hazara minority group, which has faced widespread persecution.[3][4] Although the focus was on offering a space for women, men were allowed to dine there in the evenings.[4]
