The Tuareg, Admirable Moslems, Grant Greater Rights to Women than to Men




Niger. Sahel near Tchin Tabaraden. Noble Iullimiden Tuareg nomads socializing. Contrary to other Moslems, and for belonging to a matriarchal society, the Tuarerg give women greater rights than to men.

Niger. Sahel pres de Tchin Tabaraden. Nobles Tuaregs Iullimiden conversant sous la tente de la fille du chef de tribu. Contrairement aux autres Musulmans, et pour appartenir a une societe matriarcale, les Touaregs reconnaissent plus de droits aux femmes qu'aux hommes. Et ce sont les hommes qui se voilent le visage, quoique pas pour raisons religieuses.
