Ep. 234: Negotiating Past Myths About Muslim Women   For centuries, Muslim women have been enveloped in a web of myths and misconceptions—portrayed as voiceless, oppressed, or bound by tradition. These narratives, often perpetuated by misunderstanding or prejudice, fail to capture the rich diversity, strength, and resilience of Muslim women worldwide. In this conversation, we'll unravel these myths, spotlight the powerful voices of change-makers, and explore how negotiation—whether personal, cultural, or societal—can bridge gaps, shatter stereotypes, and foster a deeper appreciation for the true stories behind the headlines.   In this episode your host, Cindy Watson, as she has the opportunity to interview Dr. Daisy Khan.
