It’s grim we still have to spell this out: survivors’ voices carry more truth than Western anthropologists who turn other people’s trauma into theories, papers and careers from a safe, cushioned distance.

What if the cure was hidden in the part of the genome no one was looking at? We just named the 7 Whispers.

We rise for our brothers and sisters in #Sudan my heart aches for Africa and I am calling on the @_AfricanUnion and all African governments to rise. The people that armed our people will not come to our aid.

Fuambai has no authority to talk about FGM in the Gambia or anywhere. She was a grown ass woman when she decided to go through FGM herself. In the Gambia girls do not have that liberty. Please stay out of our country affairs. I honestly don’t know why anyone is entertaining this woman.
Fatou Baldeh MBE@BaldehF

To the Gambian men & their Sierra Leonean njekeh calling themselves “Concerned Citizens”: your arguments don’t hold water. FGM isn’t culture, it’s a human rights abuse. Medicalising it doesn’t make it safe. #Endfgm

When I embarked on agriculture, I knew it won’t be easy. This isn’t charity. It’s not aid. It’s business rooted in dignity. We’re building assets, restoring soil, and securing food for our nation. It’s hard, but we never quit. One day they’ll ask how we did it and we’ll say: together. ✊🏾 #FoodSecurity #WomenInAg
