ok, ok, enough with the intl women's day posts. really, everyday should be intl women's day, right? nonetheless, i want to take this opp. to share with you some way too cool women who i think are beyond awesome. at the same time, i want to honor those who are no longer with us. just as a warning- this list is by no means comprehensive. il keep adding to it from time to time. here they are in no particular order:
Rim Banna: amazing voice, amazing music, this palestinian woman is a gift from heaven
May Nasr: i'm mesmerized and can't get enough (!)
(really moving lyrics here)
Huwaida Shapiro: she does a lot...just watch this video-
Rachel Corrie: RIP
Alicia Keys: because her songs never leave my ipod

Laila Khaled & Jamilah Buhaird: pretty obvious, no?
Suheir Hammad: of course. where do i begin? there aren't enough words for this woman. i could try to find some, but its really pointless. her words, on the other hand, i carry with me all the time.
