Weekend Reading: 9.10.11

Here are a couple articles to add to your weekend reading list:


Leading Muslim Girls Onto the Field:  "Coach Fartun Osman, a rare female professional basketball player in her homeland, has made it her life mission to develop the athletic and leadership skills of Muslim girls, who she says often are overlooked by traditional sports teams because of cultural differences."


Teen Mom Stayed In School:  "Pregnant and frightened at age 15, Bayza Weeks was told that her school, DeLaSalle High, believed in her. She did the rest."


Ladies That Know How to Lead:"These women leave a path of success, leadership and new methodologies behind as they continue to grow rather than destruction, devastation and questions of what is to come."


Power Dressing: "It’s really impossible to come up with a formula for successful political style. It’s all about the wider political, cultural and personal context."


Millenial Women:  "Young adult women are working diligently to chart their own course forward professionally and personally, and their experiences chronicle the under-reported human costs stemming from failed policies and the lack of opportunity. Professional goals, personal plans and the momentum for advancement have either been placed on hold or are at-risk of stalling completely – Millennial women know America can do better."
