Nadine Naber at TEDx Oak Park Women: Arab Feminism is Not an Oxymoron

Nadine Naber’s talk, Arab Feminism is Not an Oxymoron at TedxOakParkWomen on December 12, 2019, illustrates how stereotypical understandings of the concepts of both “Arab culture” and “feminism” lead many people to believe that Arab feminism is an oxymoron. Naber reframes this limiting belief to offer a new framework that allows people not only to understand that Arab feminism exists but also that there are in fact, many different kinds of “Arab feminism.”

Ultimately, Arab Feminism is Not an Oxymoron inspires us to imagine what Arab feminism can offer to anyone interested in achieving gender and social justice globally and locally.
