One brave woman

In Saudi Arabia, a brave woman fights to show her face.

"My face, which is my identity"

Westerners cannot understand what kind of courage it takes to stand up to a lifetime of daily oppression, but a young Saudi woman, TV newscaster Buthayna Nasser, is stating her case without apology. In a face-to-face debate with Islamofascist Nasser Al-Huneini she states:

"Sir, when I appear on TV, and when I claim my right to play a role in this professional field, I demand that my face, which constitutes my identity, be seen. Under no circumstances am I prepared to allow my identity to be obliterated."
