Honor Diaries is a 2013 documentary film produced by the Clarion Project, whose films have been criticized by some for allegedly falsifying information and described as anti-Muslim propaganda.[1][2] Honor Diaries explores violence against women in honor-based societies, with particular focus on female genital mutilation (FGM), violence against women and honor killings and forced marriage, and lack of access to education.
The film profiles nine women’s rights activists with origins in the Muslim (and non-Muslim) world, and follows their efforts to effect change, both within their communities and beyond. Honor Diaries premiered at the Chicago International Film Festival in October 2013 and won the Interfaith Award for Best Documentary[3] at the St. Louis International Film Festival in November 2013. It was featured from December 2013 through April 2014[4] on DirecTV’s Audience Network as part of the Something to Talk About film series.
The Southern Poverty Law Center listed the Clarion Project as an "anti-Muslim hate group" in 2016-2019.[5]
