Lubna Hussein faces forty lashes for wearing trousers. Should we be doing more?
The Sudanese journalist Lubna Hussein is facing forty lashes for wearing a pair of trousers. Her case has sparked world wide condemnation. She’s due back in court on Monday. But to what extent has her case been ignored by feminists, especially politicians - in Britain?
Jenni is joined by Sally Keeble, Labour MP for Northampton North and member of the Associate Parliamentary Group for Sudan; Susie Mesure, journalist who wrote the article asking if feminists should be doing more and Hilary Wainwright, feminist activist and editor of ‘Red Pepper’ Magazine.
