Nujood Ali has been honored alongside Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice as one of Glamour magazine’s women of the year. As she guides us from the magical, fragrant streets of Yemen’s Old City of Sana’a to the cement-block slums and rural villages of this ancient land, her unflinching look at an injustice suffered by all too many girls around the world is at once shocking, inspiring and utterly unforgettable. Read I Am Nujood: Age 10 and Divorced by Nujood Ali and discuss it with us this month.
