“It’s very interesting that you reference Shamima Begum. She, along with her bright school friends, were radicalised, leading the girls to flee the UK to join Islamic State. I was fascinated and heartbroken by that story; I still am because it is ongoing (her British citizenship has been revoked and she remains in a prison camp in Syria, I believe, and cannot make amends for the past or move forward). But she was a child when she made these astonishing, fateful, life decisions.”
