I’m starting to think that Maryam/Miriam/Meryem is a very good name – my grandmother was named Miriam, and I admired her very much – so here’s another Meryem (besides our favorite Maryam in Marrakech) that I find really interesting. She’s completely militant and outspoken, but you know what they say about well-behaved women not making history etc…
Translated from French : “Moudawana is a text written by male chauvinist pigs. It should not be reformed but put in the dustbin. Why should there be a law for the men and another for the women? The question of women must be settled as being a problem of human rights. The code of the family, certainly, brought changes, but that does not mean that the combat is finished.” (Souss.com)
