Women’s rights are perhaps THE most important issue facing global liberalism, and here’s a perfect example. In Sudan Lubna Hussein is facing a possible penalty of forty lashes for wearing pants in public. In a profound act of courage Ms. Hussein appeared at her court appearance wearing the same green trousers that got her in trouble.
“KHARTOUM (Reuters) – A Sudanese woman facing 40 lashes for wearing trousers in public made her first appearance in a court packed with supporters Wednesday, in what her lawyer described as a test case in Sudan’s decency laws.
“There were chaotic scenes as Lubna Hussein, a former journalist who works for the United Nations, attended the hearing wearing the same green slacks that got her arrested for immodest dress.”
