"I think Islamic feminism has a very critical role to play in the formulation of post-revolutionary politics and society," said Laura Bier, Assistant Professor in the School of History, Technology, and Society. Bier, who was interviewed for this Peace X Peace article, continued, "For the majority of Egyptians, faith is a fundamental part of both their identity and lived social reality. Any politics which is to be truly democratic, inclusive, and representative must take that as a starting premise." Source: Peace X Peace - January 24, 2012
