Biographies and Memoirs of Arab Women

๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฉ Sudan

In honor of International Women's Month, we have compiled memoirs, biographies, and stories by women across the SWANA region. You will find stories of resistance, activism and liberation as well as stories of oppression, war, love, family, and identity, ranging from the early 19th century until today. A big thank you to Razan Idris, writer and PhD student in History, for helping us put this list together.
