TW: Female Genital Mutilation, Sexual
Kicking off S3 with an insightful, eye-opening and inspiring episode with Farzana Doctor, who is a Toronto-based author of four novels: Stealing Nasreen, Six Metres of Pavement, All Inclusive, and Seven. Farzana is also the Maasi behind Dear Maasi, a new sex and relationships column for FGM/C survivors. She is also an activist, part-time psychotherapist and amateur tarot card reader
We chat about Farzana's latest book Seven and how it explores and teaches the reader about the practice of Khatna in a real way in a fictional setting and how it relates to broader patriarchal issues meant to control women's bodies and sexuality.
In honor of season 3 and the book's release, we will be hosting a North America based giveaway for Seven on Thurs, May 13. Keep an eye out for this @caffeinatedbrowngirl on instagram
