520    19 Arab women journalists speak out about what it's like 
       to report on their changing homelands in this first-of-its
       -kind essay collection, with a foreword by CNN Chief 
       International Correspondent Christiane Amanpour 
       International media coverage of the Arab world and its 
       many complex, interconnected conflicts is dominated by the
       work of Western correspondents, many of whom are white and
       male--meaning we see only one side of the story. But a 
       growing number of intrepid Arab women, whose access to and
       understanding of their subjects are vastly different than 
       their Western counterparts, are working tirelessly to 
       shape more nuanced narratives about their homelands 
       through their work as reporters and photojournalists. 
       Their voices have rarely been heard on the international 
       stage--until now. In Our Women on the Ground, nineteen of 
       these women tell us, in their own words, about what it's 
       like to report on conflicts that are (quite literally) 
       close to home. From sexual harassment on the streets of 
       Cairo to the impossibility of traveling without a male 
       relative in Yemen, their challenges are unique--as are 
       their advantages, such as being able to speak candidly 
       with other women or gain entry to places that an outsider 
       would never be able to access. Their daring, shocking, and
       heartfelt stories, told here for the first time, shatter 
       stereotypes about Arab women and provide an urgently 
       needed perspective on a part of the world that is often 
       misunderstood.
