I spoke with @LeilaEttachfini about the evolution of my feminism over the past decade, why I started #MosqueMeToo, and what I want feminism to be and to do in 2020 and the decade ahead:

Make patriarchy fear feminism!

vice.com/en_us/article/…
Civility upholds those in power. I refuse to allow those who don't recognize my full humanity to expect politeness of me. The feminism I’m known for today is directly borne out of being assaulted by riot police in 2011 and targets other forms of oppression that bolster patriarchy
Q: So what would you like to see happen within the feminist movement in the next decade?
I want feminism in the next decade to be a global force; to be profane and confrontational - to defy, disobey, and disrupt. I’m not interested in more women in the military or women prime ministers/presidents who uphold patriarchy. I want patriarchy to fear feminism.
