The Women

These are the women you never learned about in your history class. The women who changed the world. The women who created, fought, led, wrote, prayed, advocated, and served. The women that both the Western and Islamic patriarchal tellings of history have left behind. These are the Muslim Women You Should Know.

 
 

The Unlearn

This project opened the doors of unlearning. This collection of books, articles, podcasts, stories, and essays take you through the doors and down the path of unlearning.

The Creator

Every project has a person and every person as a story. Here’s mine.


“The patriarchy that has controlled much of our lives as Muslim Women (and also for others) has been universal. But it is not divine. It is a human construct. Since it is a human construct, we humans can dismantle it. But you can't just dismantle it in your head, you have to have application.”

- Amina Wadud
