Free Women's Legal Clinic Opens, in Partnership With Law School
A new center for women, the first of its kind in British Columbia, opened its doors May 24 to provide legal help for free or a reduced-cost.
As the "Islamic State" known as ISIS retreats, there has been a steady advance of bright colors on the streets of Syrian cities and towns.
Women are celebrating liberation from the terrorists by donning brilliant hues, as a symbolic celebration of their freedom — and one woman even says she will "only wear red" for the rest of her life.

"Oh God! Oh God! Freed! Freed!" Khadija Abdu Al-Muotee exclaims to a reporter for ANHA News. "Now I will only wear red!"

The video below is in Arabic, but Khadija's excitement speaks volumes in any language.
