Manal al-Sharif at Oslo Freedom Forum
OP - May 12, 2012, 07:51 PM

Good speech at the Oslo Freedom Forum by the Saudi human rights activist Manal al-Sharif.

Goes without saying she is on point, and very admirable.

Good overview of recent history in the Kingdom

Very interesting what she says about the impact of the internet on her life and the lives of others inside Saudi.

Do give it a watch. When she talks about the first time she ever listened to a song when she was 21 years old, because before that she believed all music was evil.

Wiki page.

She organised around the right for women to drive in Saudi.

I wish debunker was here to tell us his thoughts on this lady and her overview of Saudi since the siege, especially on the effect that the internet has had on many people there.
