The divided heart: art and motherhood

Last updated on: November 3, 2014 at 11:19 am By Posted by The Editors

I went to an extraordinary theater event tonight by Golden Thread featuring four playwrights/artists of Middle Eastern heritage – Denmo Ibrahim, Jennifer Jajeh, Rohina Malik and Maryam Rostami – in celebration of International Women’s Day. Each woman spoke in a voice utterly her own, in a male or female character of her own creation. I was struck again by the power of storytelling & the way it builds unexpected bridges of understanding between people as well as epiphanies within oneself.... Read more

Happy International Women’s Day!

Last updated on: November 3, 2014 at 11:19 am By Posted by The Editors

Editors Ayesha and Nura celebrate March 8th by penning a piece for the HuffPo, “Muslim Women Take Back the Mic on International Women’s Day.” “…[t]he experiences of some Muslim women do not negate the experiences of others. The voices of Muslim women are diverse, and our individual experiences authentic. We must be placed in our own context without being smothered under an entire globe’s worth of geopolitical baggage. Just as the life of a Catholic woman in a village in... Read more

Love, American Muslim Style

Last updated on: November 3, 2014 at 11:19 am By Posted by The Editors

We love the photo of local star couple Jittaun Jones and her husband Farid Alhadi that heads the San Jose Mercury News article on ‘Love, InshAllah’! Jones is an African-American woman married to an Indonesian man, something that strikes Nura and me as absolutely normal. Here in our home state of California, the two of us – and many of our friends – are in successful interracial partnerships. But, traveling around the country for our 5-city book tour, we began...

Our Valentine’s Day started bright and early — we were guests on the NPR show “The Takeaway” and had to be at the studio by 6:30am. We got a kick out of recording in the same studio for one of our favorite NPR shows, “The World!” From the studio, we went straight to the airport — on to New York City! Within an hour of landing in the Big Apple, we were chatting with the folks from the South Asian... Read more
