Comment: Duse Mohamed, later Ali (1886-1945) was a transitional figure connecting the Pan-Islamic movement to the Pan-Africanism of the twentieth century. Born in Alexandria, Egypt, the son of an Egyptian army officer and his Sudanese wife, he went to London at the age of nine. Actor and playwright in England and the US, he founded and edited The African Times and Orient Review (1912-1915 and 1917-1920) where Marcus Garvey worked in 1912-13. This article - Ali's only contribution to the Freewoman - argues for the presence of a 'march of intellectuality on modern lines' in the 'Mohammedan East' and especially in Egypt, despite the opinion and politics of Lord Cromer, Auckland Colvin, and other 'occupation apologists'. Yet, notwithstanding the great educational advantages accorded to women in Egypt, as Ali himself writes, in the 'Islamic household' the 'Moslem woman' is still a 'mere cipher'. For more on Ali, go to the Booker T. Washington Papers.
