Spiced Spare Ribs :-P

A week or so ago, I stumbled upon a fabulous video of an event titled “Spiced Spare Ribs” organised by the Radical Middle Way. You can watch the video here. It’s about an hour long, and a wonderful, wonderful watch. I found myself nodding along, disagreeing at parts, vigorously agreeing at others, and overall, learning a lot. The four panelists at the event were very very different from one another, which created an environment for active, honest debate that was very cool to witness. And although all the speakers were intriguing, I LOVED Humera Shah’s commentary. Her comments about it being exhausting to fight and more productive to create avenues for women to be healthy and affirmed and whole (why are we so fixated on the mosque?), were thought provoking and inspiring. And the line I loved: “I’m getting old and I want to see a ray of sunshine before I die”, was one that I’ll remember for a while.
