Publisher's summary

In this visit to New York's 92nd Street Y, Irshad Manji and Ayaan Hirsi Ali discuss the trouble with Islam.

Irshad Manji is the best-selling author of The Trouble with Islam Today: A Muslim's Call for Reform in Her Faith. Manji has been called by The New York Times "Osama bin Laden's worst nightmare". The winner of Oprah Winfrey's first annual 'Chutzpah Award', Manji is currently a visiting fellow at Yale University and is producing a feature film about what there is to love within Islam.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the author of The Caged Virgin: An Emancipation Proclamation for Women and Islam, advocates the need for democratic governments to commit to defending the human rights of women in the Islamic world. Ali is a Dutch feminist and politician. She is a prominent (and often controversial) author, film maker, and critic of Islam.

Brave Women...

who speak truth and put their lives on the line to prove it. They are called anti-Muslims and Islamophobes---but what speaks louder than the fact that Ayaan has a price on her head for saying what she does? "Islam is oppressive!' "No it isn't! And we will kill you to prove it!"

An enjoyable (if short) experience

Worth listening to if you're a fan of Irshad Manji (and I am) albeit short

Muslims taking responsibility for their own

This was a good lecture by two women who represent peaceful Islam. It's a good speech.

Hope for Islam

Very well informed. Both ladies start with similar backrounds take different paths and end up in similar positions. Pleasant and exciting speakers. Also humorous. Shows how politics and agendas have tainted a religion. HIGHLY RECCOMEND!

Commendable Women!

If more Muslims and ex-Muslims communicated with these women's verve and urgency, it would be a better world. I particularly like the intimate confession of Ayaan Hirsi Ali's moral support of Irshad Manji as a Muslim, though she herself cannot place a faith in Islam.
