Martial-arts club blooms from ruined Kabul 'Castle'
2002
Overview
The people of Kabul barely remember when former King Zahir Shah ruled from inside these once magnificent walls. Though \"the Castle\" is no longer a symbol of power, it remains a testament of the enduring human spirit. Abdul Salam, 21, formed Unity of Youth about six months ago, after earning his black-belt degree from another club in the city. He grew up in the neighborhood near the Castle and works in a bike repair shop by day. He started the club, he says, at the urging of friends who suggested that he train local youth in the martial arts. For as long as any of the members of Unity of Youth can remember, the Castle has been for fighting. The fighting is different now. For the moment, the fighting is for fun.
