Monday, April 6, 2020

Though ‘the Muslim woman’ has often been portrayed one-dimensionally, Muslim women and girls defy easy generalizations. About one of every nine people on the planet is a Muslim woman or girl, and Islam is only one facet of their lives. This talk will engage the basics of a common Muslim tradition, while showing diversity in interpretation and implementation.

Co-sponsored by the Department of History, the Department of Global and Intercultural Studies, and Middle East, Jewish & Islamic Studies
