Women in the Despatches programme last night spoke about how they chose, or not, to wear the veil. Not one of them mentioned male oppression.
What was more shocking was how militant the featured mosque in Blackburn was, compared with those shown in East London and Essex.
A very interesting programme, and for once I'm in agreement with Jambutty. It's Muslim women that could hold the answer for more integration, and understanding from all sections of the community.
