We are young digital natives reaching out across seemingly impenetrable national, social, political, ethnic, and sectarian barriers, employing the freedom created by media platforms to demand and create our own civil discourse.

Description: 23-year-old Jordanian living in the conservative city of Irbid. I'm doing an MA on feminism. Activism is my whole life and the only thing that reminds me I'm still useful. I also find myself in writing prose, and I write only in Arabic because it's the only language that my soul and pen can use to communicate. In the conservative place where I live I've seen enough that made me a hard-core feminist. So many women are my Idols starting from Fairouz to Oprah, Celine Dion, Julia Roberts, Gloria Steinem, Sandra Cisneros,... and ending with Maria Sharapova. Music is my obsession I adore it so much.The motto I live by is " If I can't make my days longer I will strive to make them better."
