Today, we are going live with our rescheduled show on the subject of Honor Killing. Though prevalent in the Middle East, the murder of mostly women and girls as a form of preserving or restoring the reputations of parents or fathers in certain families is a growing problem in the United States and other Western countries.
PLF is hosting a panel discussion on the issue, featuring voices that have experienced or know the subject closely:
Nonie Darwish - Former Muslim and head of the organization Arabs for Israel.
Phyllis Chesler - Research scholar on honor killings and US policy on honor killings.
Cynthia Farahat - Center for Security Policy fellow.
CL Edwards - Former Salafist Muslim.
