Özdemir, himself a son of Turkish immigrants if it matters, talked about his 19-year-old daughter’s worries about not being able to point out the misogyny she experiences from refugees and Muslim immigrants because she doesn’t want to be racist" (par. 8-9).

"A massive wave of migration out of India's countryside may also have unintended consequences for women. Often it's a solo male worker who migrates first, leaving women and children in their ancestral village – where the wife effectively becomes a single parent. She has less flexibility to seek paid work outside the home. When women do migrate to urban areas, they often have safety concerns. They may not know their neighbors as well as they did in their ancestral villages. And if they get jobs, they may have to commute long distances, or at night – on public transit that's often unreliable and unsafe" (para 34-35).
