Today is International Women's Day. The Foreign Affairs Group here at Duncaster celebrated it with a discussion of the status of Muslim women around the world. We all know that the status is not very good as judged by the standards of the Western world. However, in this matter, I really believe that our standards are better for the people involved and for the world at large.
We listened to a speech given at UWisconsin by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. In the excerpt below she compares Islam to some basic theories about America. It's quite interesting.
