[Marxism] Re: The hijab controversy

["Tom O'Lincoln" <suarsos@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

>>Marxists should *defend* the right of nationally oppressed peoples to
establish their own schools if the oppressed feel that is necessary to
combat and counteract their oppression ... It is no accident that this
reactionary and racist anti-Muslim measure is being promoted by French
imperialism now. <<

Very well put Jose. Recently the Sunday "Age" newspaper in Melbourne ran a
feature by a feminist philosopher explaining in erudite fashion that "Islam
as currently practiced is incompatible with feminism." Well so is
Catholicism as currently practiced, but I bet the editors aren't soliciting
articles about that!
