Hello!
I dont thinks she is "brave", because the platform to voice opinions is open in Bahrain. Such social issues are often discussed openly on TV shows and newspapers in Bahrain and what she says is no different than what many people say, except she is more vocal about it (which might not be the best approach at times).
The problem does not lie with religion if people abuse religion. Nor does it lie with a certain sect.
She is also playing along the sectarian lines, that "Shia" in bahrain multiply like rabbits, and have numerous children. A well known myth and often used to explain why Bahrain have a Shia majority.
Having said that, I do agree with her that there are issues to be addressed. With better education, we can reform ourselves. We do need to seek asylum to Spain or France to make a change on a personal level.
If each person improves on a personal level, then there will be a change in society. God helps those who help themselves.
