Are we equal? Muslim girls and boys in Conversation

In 2008, Riverdale Immigrant Womens Centre (RIWC) in Toronto embarked on an exciting Healthy, Equal Relationship project for Muslim youth funded by the Ontario Womens Directorate for the 2008/09 school year. This initiative aimed to provide youth with the tools and opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of inequality, and to reduce inequality across genders among middle-school students.

The project resulted in a larger documentary called "Are we equal?: Muslim girls and boys in Conversation", which explores the relationships between Muslim boys and girls as well as issues such as racism, family, peer pressure, etc. that impact this gender dynamics.

I think in a Hadith or in the quran it's says that men are one level above women please forgive me if I'm wrong and correct me please

women doing housework is a cultural thing, muslim males should participate too. That said the woman has the majority of responsibility inside the house. The man goes out and earns, because islam forbids males living off womens earnings.
