The challenges of being an Arab woman | Solafa Batterjee
In this sharp talk, Solafa Batterjee discusses what is expected of a woman in Saudi Arabia and how her father, a philanthropist, encouraged her to move past all limitations. He was mistakenly put on the terrorist watch list post-9/11 and finally declared innocent eight long years later. She takes a stand for him and acknowledges how he empowered her and supported her in the challenges she faced.

NOTE: Comments are disabled on this video. We made this difficult decision for the TED Archive because we believe that a well-moderated conversation allows for better commentary from more people and more viewpoints. Studies show that aggressive and hateful comments silence other commenters and drive them away; unfortunately, YouTube's comment moderation tools are simply not up to the task of allowing us to monitor comments on so many videos at once. (We'd love to see this change, YouTube.) So for now, if you'd like to comment on this talk, please use Facebook, Twitter or G+ to discuss with your networks.
