Female genital mutilation is a practice that, according to the World Health Organisation, has affected 200 million women and girls alive today. Today’s guest, author and anti-FGM campaigner Nimko Ali is on a mission to end this worldwide by 2030. In her new book, What We’re Told Not to Talk About (But We’re Going to Anyway): Women’s Voices from East London to Ethiopia, Ali shares her own personal story of FGM and the stories of many other women which are often left unheard. It is a series of intimate and illuminating conversations with women on the subjects of sex, masturbation, periods, pregnancy, the menopause and more. In this episode, the author speaks to Róisín Ingle about challenging the patriarchy, freezing her eggs and trying to make the world a better place. Hosted on Acast.
