Event Details

After reading that David Cameron linked the radicalization of Muslim men to the “traditional submissiveness” of Muslim women, Mariam Khan felt compelled to share the stories of the Muslim women she knew. Motivated to challenge the perspective about one of the most politicized and misused tropes associated with Muslim women and Islamophobia, Khan presents the nuanced experiences of Muslim women: love, sex, feminism and more. She is joined by Guardian columnist Coco Khan and journalist Saima Mir.
