Readings for Tues, Jan 31
For Tuesday, I'd like you to read several articles that go against the "party line" (though we can discuss this concept of the "party line", if you'd like!):
Tarek Atia's "Instantaneous Translation": http://weekly.ahram.org.eg/2002/603/sc42.htm
A.R. Torres' "Confessions of a 9/11 Widow" (also called "The reluctant Icon")
http://www.salon.com/mwt/feature/2002/01/25/widow_speaks/print.html
Asra Q. Nomani's "At Home with the Taliban"
http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2001/10/10/taliban/index.html
and, if you're interested in the article I read a passage from in class (this one's optional):
Lauren Sandler's "Missing Women" (also called "Hearts Broken, Hands Full":
http://www.salon.com/mwt/feature/2001/12/06/widowers/index.html
The Sandler, Torres and Nomani articles can also be found in print-friendly doc formats in the content section of the learn@uw site, if you have any trouble with the salon.com links here.
