not the apocalypse we signed up for In this messy episode Tiffany Mugo sits down with Mona Eltahawy to talk about transitioning into menopause, figuring out love and dating and how the medical gender gap is out of control. Having agency and control is something that is hard earned (because sometimes it feels like even your body is fighting you), but the goal is to free yourself. And spend more energy on researching the female body and less on making things hard. Produced by yours truly, Tiff Mugo , and created in collaboration with the Global Unit for Feminism and Gender Democracy of the Heinrich Böll Foundation. Mixing and mastering by Rachel Wamoto and Sheldon Mutei for that apocalyptic post-production. All the relevant links from the first episode are available here .

Meno-rage: IYKYK. But why does it happen? Who do so many women from all walks of life relate to this volcano of anger? Is it just hormonal? Or is is cultural?

An all English episode with Mona Eltahawy and Flavia Dzodan ! We contacted Mona asap after the fallout of her decision to withdraw from a public lecture at the Amsterdam cultural venue and debate centre De Balie on the 24th of April. Mona, an award-winning columnist, writer on Arab and Muslim issues and global feminism, was scheduled to give a talk on The Value of Female Rage which she cancelled due to a controversial discussion the centre hosted where the deportation of muslims form The Netherlands was discussed. Mona: “ After consulting with Dutch friends whose opinions I trust, I believe that De Balie is not a venue I want to bring my views to . ” You can read her full statement here . We talk about the limitations of free speech, why boycotts matter, why we should never debate our humanity, the backlash on Social Media and a bunch of really hurt white men and the destruction of the patriarchy. Mona discusses the value of international networks and transnational solidarity amongst activists. Mariam and Mona also delve into the complex and layered narrative regarding the veiling of muslim women, why this conversation that must be had and should be led only by muslim women and Mona's opposition to the burka, hijab and the niqab: " I always complicate this idea of choice and agency ". We also touch lightly on the the so called Immigrant Illuminati conspiracy Dutch pundits seem to think exists: we also have it on the record that Flavia was not responsible for Mona cancelling the lecture.
