Even here at MHC there was barely a word uttered. Ugh. Feministing had a cool story about Wajeha Al-Huwaider, a women's rights activist in Saudi Arabia, who defied the women's driving ban in the country in celebration, though. Heartening. And if I'm not mistaken the ban is going to be overturned super shortly- the decision was made a few months ago to do so. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2512858685634922680.post-50836234401495946012008-03-08T23:33:00.000-05:002008-03-08T23:33:00.000-05:00Just a note: I didn't intend for this post to be a...Just a note: I didn't intend for this post to be all jammed together like that.
