Women Driving Protests in Saudi Arabia by Tami Erlich and Jessie Wax

THESIS: Women in Saudi Arabia think they should be allowed to drive, and they have been protesting their right to drive since November of 1990.

The women driving protest in Saudi Arabia is a huge deal in Saudi Arabia. These demonstrations are a perfect example of fighting for women's rights. The women driving protest started in 1990, and has occurred ever since. Women believe they have the right to drive and be treated equally as men. The women are also very proud to fight for the freedom and for what they believe in. However, most men are completely opposed to the idea of women driving which is why this has turned out to be a big deal. The driving rules for women should be no different than the rules for men. In years to come, women may finally get their right to drive in Saudi Arabia.
