Two weeks ago, @EyalaBlog & @Oxfam's #SayEnough celebrated #AfricanWomensDay by amplifying the voices of African #feminist who #FlipTheScript on harmful social norms. I wrote about what I learned from these conversations 👇🏾

Summarizing the brilliance of #Afrifem powerhouses @nas009 @rachaelmwiks @SouadDouibi @BintouMariamT @drtlaleng @Emmaonekekou @muthonie & Cleo Kambugu is no easy feat! I'm glad I recorded all #FlipTheScript conversations, especially this amazing webinar:

#FlipTheScript was a perfect celebration of Eyala's 2nd birthday, too! The year ahead will bring many changes, but Eyala's #feminist vision remains the same: proudly African, intentionally inclusive, bravely personal, boldly political, and rooted in kindness, love, & sisterhood.
And we’re live! Welcome to this #FlipTheScript Q&A with one of my #Afrifem fav @nas009, whose blog @adventuresfrom has helped my and many other African womxn embrace their sexualities. 
#FlipTheScript is an @EyalaBlog x @Oxfam #SayEnough collab that’s all about celebrating the African womxn and #Afrifem who disrupt the narratives and social norms that perpetuate gender-based violence ahead of #AfricanWomensDay
And @nas009 does exactly that. Hi sis, are you here and ready to go?
Rejoignez moi le 31 juillet pour affirmer haut et fort: Je suis #AfricaineEtPlurielle ! Je serais sur Zoom ce vendredi pour des conversations avec les femmes et féministes africaines (ci-dessous) qui transgressent les normes. #SayEnough
✊🏿 @drtlaleng (#AfriqueduSud) : Docteure en médecine (MBChB), militante pour la santé et les droits sexuels et reproductifs, Rapporteure Spéciale des Nations unies sur le droit à la santé, et autrice de "Dr T: A Guide to Sexual Health & Pleasure"
✊🏿@SouadDouibi (#Algérie): Artiste plasticienne, performeuse & enseignante d'art thérapie. En 2016, Souad a créé une magnifique performance dans laquelle elle écrivait le mot "Imra'a" (femme) sur les murs d'Alger, suscitant un débat public s/ la place de la femme dans la société
Être une femme africaine = porter le poids d’injonctions permanentes. Comme si on ne pouvait pas être #AfricaineEtPlurielle! En vue de la #JIFA je vous propose cette semaine de rencontrer des féministes africaines qui transgressent les normes👇🏾

Hello Friends! Somehow Sunday has come again to close one of these feel-long-but-go-in-a-flash weeks 2020 has specialized in. So here I am with my list of #recommendedreads about #Africa #WomensRights & #Feminism, and an exciting announcement!

If you know (or just follow) me you will know that #feminist sisterhood is the core of what I am about. So of course @TheJamaJack's ode to the sisters who nurture her is at the top of this reading list. Thank you sis for sharing!

@TheJamaJack piece reminded me of what Dr. Celeste Henery wrote in @HistoryWO about radical friendships: "a type of friendship, driven by an uncertain but no less wondrous attempt to become more of ourselves. I would call it sacred." On point.
