Here is a Book Worth Reading

This book is so timely and filled with so much excellent information regarding Afghan women's rights issues, and the state of human rights in Muslim countries. Reading these women's stories just reinforces me, solidifies the fact that women across the globe need to step up and stand up for the Muslim women around the world. These women are our sisters and we must help them gain their very basic human rights. The women in the book called "Muslim Women Reformers Inspiring Voices Against Oppression" written by author Ida Lichter inspire me even more to get involved and raise my voice for those who cannot raise their voices. I would recommend this book to all who want to hear the truth about the state of affairs in human rights and women's rights issues. I would also recommend a blog mentioned in the book by Wazhma Frogh, who advocates and speaks about women's rights issues in Afghanistan and knows first hand what the underlying issues are that are keeping the women in Afghanistan from taking hold of what is rightfully theirs, human rights. Great Book, Great Blog!
