ICYMI: Taliban Memories

The Taliban - we all know them, few of us love them, and it looks like they’re going to rule Afghanistan - again.

Today, we have two journalists who were in Afghanistan in the 90s. Scott Neuman was working for United Press International and wrote from the scene.


Alan Chin is a photographer who went to Afghanistan to take pictures for The New York Times.
