BADASS Muslimahs

I've had enough of the sensationalist, exoticised, demeaning portrayals of Muslim women seen all throughout the media, and this is my way of countering all the nonsense.

This is not an attempt at 'breaking stereotypes' or trying to enlighten people, if you're ignorant enough to believe that Muslim women are oppressed and subjugated by Islam then that's your own problem.

This is my way of giving recognition to all the women who inspire me, and hopefully sending out some positive vibes.

Peace.

(via ‘Shatter Me’ Author Tahereh Mafi Talks ‘X-Men’ Comparisons)

Tahereh Mafi is the author of the new YA novel Shatter Me.

In her own words:

She’s 24. She was born in a small city somewhere in Connecticut and currently resides in Orange County, California, where she drinks too much caffeine and finds the weather to be just a little too perfect for her taste. When unable to find a book, she can be found reading candy wrappers, coupons, and old receipts. SHATTER ME is her first novel.
