The Gazette offers audio versions of articles using Instaread. Some words may be mispronounced.
The other day I read that the Taliban, the extreme political group in Afghanistan that our president calls terrorists, is now strictly enforcing the following: abortion is banned, gay marriage is outlawed, science and vaccines are rejected, church and the state are no longer separated, and religion (only theirs) is taught in schools.
Gee, doesn’t that sound familiar?
