The first Arab woman, the first Yemeni citizen, and the second Muslim woman to win a Nobel Prize, she is known to some of Yemen's opposition movement as the "Iron Woman" and "Mother of the Revolution". Tawakkul Karman emerged as an icon figure among Yemeni youth activists camping out at Change Square in central Sana'a in early February, demanding the end of President Ali Abdullah Saleh's three-decade rule.
Seized from her car and slung into prison this past January, She was hurled into the international spotlight with thousands of people pouring on to the streets of Sana'a calling for her release. It became a crucial moment in Yemen's uprising, ultimately changing the tide against Saleh.
Karman is a Yemeni journalist, politician and senior member of Al-Islah political party, and human rights activist who heads the group "Women Journalists without Chains", which she co-founded in 2005. She gained prominence in her country after 2005 in her roles as a Yemeni journalist and an advocate for a mobile phone news service denied a license in 2007, after which she led protests for press freedom.
Established in 1909, Al Hasnaa accompanied the Arab Woman in her march and covered her evolution, highlighting in its pages issues about various facets and aspects of her life and identity, standing apart in its openness and objective coverage of different ideas and lifestyles.
