Asra Nomani has been working on behalf of women鈥檚 rights for decades. She recently penned an detailing her experience testifying in front of a number of Senators about her life as a woman and how it relates to her faith.

One of these Senators was Kamala Harris, one of the leading progressive voices in the country. Senator Harris was not interested in what Asra had to say.

We spoke to Ms.Nomani on Rantz and Burns.

鈥淚 knew it would be tense in the hearing room,鈥� Nomani said, 鈥淲hat I was not expecting, and what I was shocked to receive, was the cold shoulder, the silent treatment, from not only Senator Harris but the other women Democratic Senators that sat before me.鈥�

Nomani鈥檚 criticism of Islam鈥檚 treatment of women has been largely ignored by Harris and others on the left as it seems that any critique of Islam is viewed immediately as Islamophobia.

鈥淭hey are told it is offensive if we talk about Islamic extremism, they are told they are racist and bigoted if we talk about these issues.鈥�

Which is why Asra voted for Donald Trump. She doesn鈥檛 believe she can rely on the Democrats for help.

鈥淢y vote was influenced by the fact that, unfortunately, the Democratic party has cowered to Muslim lobbyists 鈥� I鈥檓 a liberal, I鈥檓 a progressive and the Democrats have abandoned and failed us on this fundamental national security issue.鈥�

Nomani immigrated here when she was 4 years old and has participated in hundreds of protests in support of expanding freedoms. She believes that鈥檚 what she is doing now: standing up for freedom.

鈥淚 grew up with a very feminist interpretation of Islam. I advocate for a theology that we call Islamic feminism, one which women have equal rights to men. But we are up against the governments of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Iran, and we need fellow liberals beside us.鈥�

But they鈥檙e not. Nomani believes only Trump is speaking honestly about this issue.

She is, to a degree, correct.

It is absolutely appropriate to criticize Islam, just as it is to criticize any religion denying people鈥檚 rights.

Senator Harris, Asra Nomani deserves to be heard. She wants what you want. Listen to her.
