Women and Gender in Islam: Historical Roots of a Modern Debate

Are Islamic societies inherently oppressive to women?

Here, Ula Taylor documents their struggle to escape the devaluation of black womanhood while also clinging to the empowering promises of patriarchy. Taylor shows how, despite being relegated to a lifestyle that did not encourage working outside of the home, NOI women found freedom in bein... [Read More]
