Synopsis
Irshad Manji is an acclaimed journalist, lecturer and human rights advocate based in Toronto. Her bestseller The Trouble with Islam Today has been published internationally. In those countries that have banned it, Manji is reaching readers by posting free translations on her website, www.muslim-refusenik.com. Since writing the book, Irshad Manji has travelled the world engaging audiences such as the United Nations Press Corps, the Oxford Union, the Jean-Jacques Rousseau Institute and the Pentagon about supporting the liberal reformation of Islam. Meanwhile, her columns are distributed worldwide by the New York Times Syndicate and she is producing a feature film about what there is to love within Islam. As a volunteer, she sits on the interfaith editorial board of Seventeen magazine, based in New York City. As well, she serves as a mentor to young scholars, specializing in human rights and public policy, at the Pierre Trudeau Foundation in Montreal. In addition, Manji is working with young people around the world to launch the world’s first leadership centre for reform-minded Muslims. Recognizing Irshad Manji’s leadership, Oprah Winfrey honoured her with a Chutzpah Award for “audacity, nerve, boldness and conviction.” Ms. magazine has selected her a “Feminist for the 21st Century.” Maclean’s named her to its 2004 honour roll of “Canadians who make a difference.” And on International Women’s Day in 2005, the Jakarta Post (Indonesia) identified her as one of three Muslim women creating positive change in Islam. In 2006 Irshad will be writing her next book, as a Fellow at Yale University.
