The position of muslim women
by zoss in s-l-m, rightLaila Lalami argues:
Muslim women are used as pawns by Islamist movements that make the control of women’s lives a foundation of their retrograde agenda, and by Western governments that use them as an excuse for building empire. These women have become a politicized class, prevented by edicts and bombs from taking charge of their own destinies. The time has come for the pawns to be queened.
Agree or not, the article is worth a careful read.
