In a single move, Huda Shaarawi cemented her legacy in Egypt's women's movement. She stepped down from a train in Cairo and before a crowd, pulled back her veil. For an upper-class woman in 1923, revealing her face was a daring and decisive act. But Huda wasn't afraid of pushing the social norms. Support the show: https://www.aljazeera.com/podcasts/hindsight/

It's summer hours over at the pod but we're bringing you a great one. Savannah takes us through the life of Huda Shaarawi, a woman who helped usher feminism into Egypt by casting off her veil and using her privilege to get things done. Take a drink every time Savannah says 'things were happening' in reference to a very important political movement and finish the drink when Jessica starts freaking out about Italy. Do not operate heavy machinery after.
