Synopsis
Amanda Parker is the Senior Director at AHA Foundation, a non-profit organization for the defense of women's rights and female liberty. Founded in 2007 by Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the goal of AHA Foundation is to combat crimes against women such as child marriage, forced marriage, and female genital mutilation. Amanda Parker travels throughout America educating legislators, encouraging ballot initiatives that protect little girls, tweens, teens, and women from abuse. Hear what a typical day is like for Ms. Parker, the shocking number of how many girls and women in America have experienced FGM, and what survivors of the practice are doing to end it in America-where currently 22 states do not have laws criminalizing the practice.
