Synopsis

"Don't Mention It" is a series from Underestimated: A Podcast about the things we're apparently not supposed to mention, things that society doesn't seem to value as much, but things that are important to talk about. This series shares stories that too often go unmentioned in relation to health throughout the spectrum of femininity. Episode 2 is a discussion with writer, activist, and FGM survivor Mariya Taher about breaking the silence on FGM/C, using storytelling as activism, and her groundbreaking work to collect data on FGM/C survivors living in the United States.    Show Notes   Sahiyo https://www.sahiyo.com     The Orchid Project https://orchidproject.org/   Change.org Petition - Ban Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting in Massachusetts https://www.change.org/p/ban-female-genital-mutilation-cutting-in-massachusetts   U.S. End FGM/C Network https://endfgmnetwork.org/   Mariya’s Articles   How My MSW Thesis Broke the Silence on Female Genital Cutting https://www.socialworker.com/feature-articles/practice/h
