This one's a freebee since a lot of you are very far behind in posting on the discussion forum. So...

I want you to begin discussing Randa's work and questions it raises that you would like to discuss with her.

Post one question you have about her work or that you would like to ask her and respond to someone else's posting.

I would also like you to take a look at the following websites:

Randa's blog [1] where you can read two of her short stories published online: "You Are a 14-Year-Old Arab Chick Who Just Moved to Texas" [2] and "The Lunatics' Eclipse" [3].

You might also be interested in browsing through Sex and the Umma [4], which I mentioned in class last week in regard to it being hacked by Islamic fundamentalists.
