It’s alive and well. You just haven’t noticed. Feminists across the world are fighting battles you’ve never seen in the West.
They’re imprisoned in #Iran for removing their hijab. They’re imprisoned in #SaudiArabia for driving or pushing for the abolition of laws against women.

They’re fighting for laws that protect women and value their lives in #Kuwait, where men who ‘honor kill’ their sisters and wives get a perfunctory three years in prison.
They’re in the streets of #Pakistan literally risking their lives to say ‘stop raping us’.
This is why I’m writing a book called Forgotten Feminists. Because ppl here are so caught up in intersectional ‘discourse’ that they forgot that women’s lives are actually in danger across the globe. Girls are denied educations, get their genitals cut, forced into child marriages
