WOMEN & RELIGION
Religious
women make change happen, whether it’s by seeking peace or inciting war. Strong
beliefs can inspire social justice or block a woman's access to freedom or
equality. Join us as we explore the relationship between faith and politics in
the lives of women around the world.
Discover how the veil can celebrate devotion yet divide worlds. Learn how one
woman raised an army in God's name. Listen in as women sing to protest unfair
laws in their country. Learn what the future holds for a new generation of
Muslim women unburdened by fundamentalism. Listen to our podcast with

Momaya's introduction
to this topic.
