What happens when four women of Muslim background with varied opinions discuss Islamic modesty clothing? Fireworks!

Join Me, Sarah Haider (co-founder of Ex Muslims of North America), Hoda Katebi (Muslim Iranian fashion blogger), Hala Arafa (former newscaster/news editor at Voice of America, Arabic branch) for this wonderful, passionate and intellectually diverse discussion.

Please note that there were a million points being thrown out per minute (slight exaggeration), so at times it was hard to get a word in, and as a result not everything was challenged or discussed in detail. In fact, out of my list of things I wanted to discuss I think we only got through 1/10th of the topics! I had been trying to organize this panel for almost a month now, but couldn't find someone who also wears hijab willing to speak to me. -__- But it finally happened. hope you will enjoy this discussion as much as I did.
