Kolena Laila 2009
Have you heard about “Kolena Laila (Arabic: كلنا ليلى)” before? If yes then OK. If no, then it is a virtual initiative on the blogsphere that aims to highlight on the status of women by reviewing the ideas prevailed about them in our societies in the Arab world since the year 2006.
The event of this year shall take place online between (24th - 30th of December 2009). I am going to participate [incha'allah] with a post since I am concerned about status of Arab women in our societies from the Atlantic Ocean in the west to the Arabian Gulf in the east of our Arab World. If you are interested to know more about this and participate, please go and take a look at the event's website.
Note: For the non-Arabic speakers who read this, “Kolena Laila” means ‘We are all Laila’

Mohaly: Laila is the heroine of Latifa El-Zayat’s novel Al-Bab Al-Maftooh which is roughly translated as ‘The Open Door’ for non-Arabic speakers. It was also transformed into a film starting Faten Hamama in the past century.
