Do Muslim Women Need Saving?
Do Muslim Women Need Saving? | Lila Abu-Lughod
1 post | 1 read | 12 to read
Do Muslim Women Need Saving? is an indictment of a mindset that has justified all manner of foreign interference, including military invasion, in the name of rescuing women from Islam. It offers a detailed, moving portrait of the actual experiences of ordinary Muslim women, and of the contingencies with which they live.

Sharp, forceful, and clear-eyed, this dismantles dominant stereotypes about Muslim women, backed up by a wealth of anthropological research. A must-read. #booksbyMuslimwomen #ReadingWomenMonth @thereadingwomen
