WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY?
Thursday was an exceptionally slow news day — at home and abroad. Only two domestic stories rose to the level of “worth bringing to your attention on the weekend.” In short order:
Farouk El-Okdah is back. A veteran of New York banking circles and governor of the Central Bank of Egypt from December 2003 until January 2013, El-Okdah was appointed yesterday by presidential decree to the Central Bank of Egypt Coordinating Committee. Also joining El-Okdah on the body, which ostensibly helps to coordinate monetary and fiscal policies, is asset manager-turned-prolific columnist Mohamed El-Erian. (Oh, and the USD was stable at the CBE’s auction yesterday, with USD 40 mn changing hands at EGP 7.73.) More on this front in Sunday’s edition.
We also have a new governor of the Central Bank of Egypt: Tarek Amer takes the helm today. It would be an understatement to say we’re looking forward to the coming weeks. Welcome back to public life, Mr. Amer.

Eva Habib El Masri (1912-1983): Leader in Women’s Movement in Egypt and the Formation of Coptic Community in North America
Proceedings of the 2016 International Congress of Coptic Studies, 2024
This article situates the life and legacy of Eva Habib el Masri (1912-83) through the twin lenses... more This article situates the life and legacy of Eva Habib el Masri (1912-83) through the twin lenses of her leadership as a feminist (in Egypt) and her later role in the establishment of Coptic communal life in the Diaspora (New York and New Jersey, United States). For her, these two roles were complimentary rather than in tension, despite the patriarchal nature of the Coptic Church in which she was a proactive player. While el Masri has been recognized in the secondary literature for her pivotal leadership in the Egyptian Women’s Movement (1930s-50s), her Coptic identity is hardly, if ever, inspected, let alone her later leading role as an organizer in the North American Coptic Diaspora. This article therefore fills gaps in the socio-religious-historical narrative as much as it offers el Masri as a case study of the forces and issues surrounding the establishment of the Coptic Orthodox Church in America.
