More about:

Curious Orange - 21 September 2009. Muslims in the Netherlands may be getting a bad press these days, but all over Amsterdam they're trying to show people we're all the same. Community groups have been inviting people to join an iftar... the traditional evening meal served to break the fast during Ramadan. But it's not all Kumbaya. We'll also hear about the row over a proposal... to tax Muslim women for wearing headscarfs. And we'll play you a tune. This week's featured music artist is the Horse Company.
