Ep: 24 - Mirror On The Veil- Dr. Nausheen Pasha

What does the word “veiling” mean to you? For some it is an emblem of piety, while others condemn it as a patriarchal tool of oppression. Love it or hate it, the veil is one of the most prevalent and misunderstood symbols of feminine identity and power today. Dr. Nausheen Pasha-Zaidi is the author of Mirror on the Veil, an anthology of personal essays from around the globe that demystifies the individual significance of the veil by taking you inside the hearts and minds of those who have experienced it first hand. Dr. Nausheen is currently a lecturer at the University of Houston-Downtown. She has worked as an educator and academic advisor in the United States and the United Arab Emirates. Her research explores culture, gender, and social justice in international systems, with an emphasis on Muslim populations.
