On NPR I heard them talk about the Taqwacore movement, which is a genre of Islamic punk and hip-hop music. Pretty interesting stuff.
Here is the NPR article.
Rolling Stones has an article here.
On BBC News they have an article talking about the potentially upcoming veil ban in France, but the part I thought was most interesting was a little slide show detailing the different types of Islamic veils for women, their names, and what they represent.
