Rebel : my escape from Saudi Arabia to freedom / by Mohammed, Rahaf,author.; Armstrong, Sally,1943-author.;
In early 2019, after three years of careful planning, Rahaf Mohammed finally escaped her abusive family in Saudi Arabia--but made it only to Bangkok before being stripped of her passport. If forced to return home, she was sure she would be killed, like other rebel women in her country. As men pounded at the door of her barricaded hotel room, she created a Twitter account. The teenager reached out to the world, and the world answered--she gained 45,000 followers in one day, and those followers helped her seek asylum in the West. Now, Rahaf Mohammed tells her remarkable story in her own words, revealing untold truths about life in the closed kingdom, where young women are brought up in a repressive system that puts them under the legal control of a male guardian. Raised with immense financial privilege, but under the oppressive control of her male relatives--including her high-profile politician father--Rahaf endured an abusive childhood in which oppression and deceit were the norm. Moving from Rahaf's early days on the underground online network of Saudi runaways who use coded entries to learn how to flee the brutalities of their homeland, to her solo escape to Canada, Rebelis a breathtaking and life-affirming memoir about one woman's tenacious pursuit of freedom.

We have always been here : a queer Muslim memoir / by Habib, Samra,author.;
"A queer Muslim searches for the language to express her truest self, making peace with her sexuality, her family, and Islam. Growing up in Pakistan, Samra Habib lacks a blueprint for the life she wants. She has a mother who gave up everything to be a pious, dutiful wife and an overprotective father who seems to conspire against a life of any adventure. Plus, she has to hide the fact that she's Ahmadi to avoid persecution from religious extremists. As the threats against her family increase, they seek refuge in Canada, where new financial and cultural obstacles await them. When Samra discovers that her mother has arranged her marriage, she must again hide a part of herself -- the fun-loving, feminist teenager that has begun to bloom -- until she simply can't any longer. So begins a journey of self-discovery that takes her to Tokyo, where she comes to terms with her sexuality, and to a queer-friendly mosque in Toronto, where she returns to her faith in the same neighbourhood where she attended her first drag show. Along the way, she learns that the facets of her identity aren't as incompatible as she was led to believe, and that her people had always been there -- the world just wasn't ready for them yet"--
