Women in India

I never have been as open minded to India as now. I decided to take a class on Gender and Sexuality in India. Talk about enlightenment. I had no idea it had taken hundreds of years for women to get to where they are now in India. It was the christians who came as missionaries to India who introduced the concept of education to India's women. Many women converted to Christianity and started schools in their home. One woman, a Muslem, wrote a book called Sultana's Dream, where women rule the world. Think of that, the oppression rang so heavy that it came out through the voice of their literature. I weeped just knowing that there had been such a fight for women to get to where they are now. It has taken many a struggles of even the voices of men crying out for the women to be set free. Men, who were destined to be born for such a purpose. There is a call God puts on the lives of men to be born for specific purposes. Politics can be a call to ministry. Through political offices and the heavy hearts of the officers are opportunities for justice to prevail. For liberation to break free. God used many men, not really knowing why they were born to be that voice.
