Firdaus sitzt im Gefängnis in der Todeszelle und erzählt die Geschichte ihres Lebens. Sie wurde missbraucht, vergewaltigt, unterdrückt - und meint nun, kurz vor ihrem Tod, die Freiheit gefunden zu haben… Wir sprechen in dieser Folge über das Buch und die Autorin, die selbst in ihrem bewegten Leben mutig für Frauenrechte gekämpft hat. Dabei wurde sie bedroht und kritisiert, landete im Gefängnis und ließ sich von drei Ehemännern scheiden. Ihr Engagement brachte sie vor 20 Jahren auch zu einer Veranstaltung nach Wien. Die Organisatorin des Events, Mary Attia, ehemalige Obfrau vom Verein für ägyptische Frauen und Familien, erzählt von ihren Eindrücken.
It's been 12 years since the Arab Spring erupted in North Africa and spread to West Asia – and the current state of the Middle East could have you thinking that no such mass uprising took place, that was on the cusp of anti-capitalist revolution. Though many have engaged in deep analysis of how the Arab Spring was betrayed, how the United States and CIA intervened to hijack the revolution and so on, on today's program I want to broadcast a speech of one of my favourite writers and activists, Nawal El Sadawi who died in March 2021.On today's program,I will broadcast a speech by Nawal El Saadawi, delievered in Germany almost 10 years ago today, two years after the start of the Egyptian uprisings and the overthrow of Hosni Mobarak. This speech is about feminism and the intersections of economics, poverty and revolution.

Il 27 ottobre 1931 nasce a Kafr Tahlah, in Egitto, Nawal El Saadawi - con Paola Caridi
The Egyptian feminist writer and doctor Nawal El Saadawi always spoke her mind. Her early books were explosive testimonials, based on her medical practice and personal experience, about sexual double standards and the abuses women faced because of them. She went on to write many more books, including novels, plays and several memoirs. Over the course of her life she was jailed, censored, fired, admired, and attacked by Islamists as an unbeliever. She is still one of the best-known and most translated Arab women writers. Some of the books discussed in this episode include: The Hidden Face of Eve, The Fall of the Imam, Memoirs from the Women's Prison, Woman at Point Zero, Daughter of Isis and Walking Through Fire. The Radical Books Collective and the Adabiyat Book Club are holding an online master class on El Saadawy's famous novel Woman At Point Zero on November 20, with academic and translator Samah Selim. Ursula wrote about El Saadawy recently for The New York Review of Books.
Nawal El Saadawi wurde 1931 in einem kleinen Dorf nördlich von Kairo geboren, als zweitältestes von neun Kindern. Ihr älterer Bruder führte ihr sehr früh vor Augen, dass Jungen viel mehr Freiheiten genossen als Mädchen. Er durfte draußen spielen, Fahrradfahren, sich frei bewegen, während sie in der Küche helfen musste und ohnehin nicht draußen spielen durfte. Aber nicht nur das: Bereits mit 6 Jahren wurde sie von Frauen ihrer eigenen Familie beschnitten.Mit 11 sollte sie verheiratet werden, wogegen sie sich aber wehrte. Mit Hilfe ihrer Mutter, die leider sehr früh starb. Ebenso wie ihr Vater. So musste Nawal allein für ihre Geschwister sorgen. Trotz der Einschränkungen, die Mädchen und Frauen zu dieser Zeit in Ägypten erfuhren, studierte sie Medizin und dokumentierte schon sehr früh die körperlichen und psychischen Probleme von Frauen und verband sie mit kulturellen Praktiken von Unterdrückung: patriarchalischer und imperialistischer Unterdrückung sowie Klassenunterdrückung. Zeitlebens wehrte sie sich gegen diese Unterdrückung, wurde inhaftiert, begab sich mehrfach in Lebensgefahr, und musste aus ihrer Heimat fliehen. Aber auch vom Ausland aus setzte sie ihr Engagement fort, schrieb Bücher, hielt Vorträge und ging in die Lehre. Bis zu ihrem Tod blieb sie eine Kämpferin, die man zurecht die „Löwin vom Nil“ nannte. Was sie sonst noch erlebt und unternommen hat und welche Rolle sie während des so genannten "Arabischen Frühlings“ in Ägypten spielte, das erzählen euch Kim und Cathrin in dieser Folge von Starke Frauen.Schreibt uns gern, hinterlasst eine Rezension auf Apple und folgt uns auf Spotify und Instagram.Ihr erreicht uns hier: https://linktr.ee/starkefrauenPhoto: Mansour Nasiri in Brüssel, Belgien#arabischerfruehling #frauenbewegung #aegypten #saawadi #starkefrauen #femaleempowerment Möchtest Du Cathrin oder Kim auf einen Kaffee einladen und dafür die Episoden werbefrei hören?

Med anledning av att den egyptiska författaren, feministen och psykiatrikern Nawal el Saadawi gått bort återvänder vi till ett reportage av Karine Mannerfelt från 2011 mitt under den arabiska våren. Möt en då 80-årig rebell på hemmaplan i Kairo. Farmor gav mig min första viktiga lektion i livet, den om rättvisa. Hon ställde borgmästaren mot väggen för att han stal bybornas bomull och gav den till kungen och de engelska kolonisatörerna. Nawal el Saadawi är arabvärldens kvinnliga rebell som i decennier stridit mot maktmisbruk och för kvinnors rättigheter. Redan när hon var tio år drömde hon att Egypten skulle bli fritt. När hon var knappt 20 år protesterade hon på Tahrirtorget för första gången. När hon i februari 2011 gjorde detsamma och diktatorn Mubarak tvingades avgå var det en dröm som gick i uppfyllelse. Karine Mannerfelt träffade henne i Kairo våren 2011, i hennes lägenhet med milsvid utsikt mot Nilen.

Nawal El Saadawi, penulis novel "Perempuan di Titik Nol" telah berpulang. Jejak pemikirannya mempengaruhi banyak aktivis-aktivis perempuan dunia termasuk di Indonesia, meskipun karya-karyanya pernah dilarang oleh pemerintah Mesir. Saatnya telah tiba bagi saya untuk melepaskan butiran yang terakhir dari kebajikan, tetesan terakhir dari kesucian di dalam darah saya. Kini saya telah sadar mengenai kenyataan, mengenai kebenaran. Kini saya telah tau apa yang saya inginkan. Kini tak ada lagi ruangan untuk khayalan. Seorang pelacur yang sukses lebih baik daripada seorang suci yang sesat—- Kini saya sadari bahwa yang paling sedikit diperdayakan dari semua perempuan adalah pelacur. Perkawinan adalah lembaga yang dibangun diatas penderitaan yang paling kejam untuk kaum wanita. (hal. 126) Bintang Tamu: Qurrota A'yunin penerima beasiswa LPDP RI tahun 2017, Program Magister, Kajian Gender, Universitas Indonesia
W marcu zmarła Nawal El Saadawi, najsłynniejsza i ostatnia z arabskich feministek, których walka o prawa kobiet przypadła na okres rewolucji seksualnej. Co zostało z ich spuścizny i z jakimi wyzwaniami zmaga się nowe pokolenie działaczek, w tym tych, które inspirację czerpią z Islamu, odmawiając nazywania się feministkami? O emancypacji w świecie arabskim opowiada dr Karolina Rak z Instytutu Bliskiego i Dalekiego Wschodu Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego, autorka projektu Niswiyya - Feminizm arabski.

Bruce Shapiro on the latest from the US, journalist and author Gavin Esler on how Britain ends and we remember writer and activist Nawal El Saadawi.
The death of writer and activist Nawal el Saadawi has just been announced. In 2011 Tess Woodcraft interviewed her at a conference organised by the Iranian and Kurdish Women's Right Organisation for Pod Academy. We reproduce it here. Typically, and at 80 years old, she had stopped off at the Occupy encampment around St Paul's Cathedral on her way from the airport, before coming on to the conference. Note: there is also an Italian translation of this podcast, by Federica di Lascio, below. Nawal el Saadawi is one of the foremost Egyptian writers. A doctor by profession, she has written over 40 books of fiction and non-fiction, which have been translated into 30 languages. Since her very first novel, written in her twenties, she has taken on some of the most difficult, challenging, controversial subjects, including: female genital mutilation, domestic violence, child marriage, prostitution, the impact of war on women and children, so-called ‘honour killing’ and the laws that maintain women’s status as minors. It is not surprising perhaps that this has made her many powerful enemies. She has been forced out of employment, she was imprisoned by the Egyptian authorities in the 1980s and in the 1990s she lived under serious death threats from religious fundamentalists. Indeed, she was forced into exile. But now she is back in Egypt where, although now in her eighties, she took an active role in the demonstrations in Tahrir Square last Spring and continues to fight to ensure that women’s rights are part of the political settlement in Egypt. Her writing and activism are seen by women around the world as a beacon of light and she has received many awards, literary and academic. This interview was recorded at a conference in London organised by IKWRO, the Iranian and Kurdish Women’s Rights Organisation, which works to end honour killing and sexual violence against women. Tess Woodcraft: What did you mean when you wrote in your autobiography: ‘writing is my sole refuge, it’s like breathing’? Nawal el Saadawi: My work is my love and when you love your work you can do it well. Since childhood I was forced to study medicine, to become a doctor. But I didn’t dream of being a physician – I dreamt of art, music, poetry, dancing, writing novels. Of course there is no separation of creativity in science and art, but when I was a child I loved to move my body, to dance and this is natural. But in Egypt at that time it was a taboo to be a dancer or a film actress, and it was very respectable to be a doctor. So I accepted the advice of my parents and went into the medical profession. But all the time I felt that my writing was my life, and all the time I kept a secret diary under my pillow, and I have never stopped writing from then till now. It is more than oxygen, it is my life. It is more than breathing TW: How do you see the relationship between your writing and your political activism? N el S: They are inseparable. Writing and fighting are inseparable. Why do we write? Because it gives us pleasure. Creativity gives us pleasure. The pleasure of creativity is above everything – it can cure us of all our pains. But of course creativity can also lead to you to prison and to exile because you challenge the system. But the pleasure of creativity is more than the pain Nawal el Saadawi at the IKWRO conference TW: You’ve tackled some of the most difficult issues, – one of these is female genital mutilation. Despite efforts to outlaw it, it is still practised in many countries. Is it possible to change this? N el S: Of course, but there are many sexual problems in the lives of women – female genital mutilation, rape, honour killing, forced marriages. They are usually tackled separately, but we have to connect in order to cure. In order to cure the problem, we have to know why we have it. Why is the clitoris of women cut? (and we have to link male genital mutilation to female genital mutil...

Prolific Egyptian feminist author Nawal el Saadawi passed away this week. As a long standing critic of all religions and established politics, she received death threats, harassment and was jailed as a dissident in Egypt for her criticism of the Sadat Government. She spent years in exile in the United States, continuing to level attacks against religion, colonialism and western hypocrisy. Islam was also one of her targets, especially the veil, but nor did she shy away from being critical of western feminism.
Another city, another tragic shooting in the United States, this time in a grocery store in Boulder, Colorado, on Monday. The shooter killed 10 people in a horrific mass shooting, again capturing the global spotlight less than a week after a shooting in Atlanta left eight dead. And, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has withdrawn his country from a treaty protecting women from gender-based violence. Also, The World remembers Nawal El Saadawi, an Egyptian feminist, writer, doctor and activist who passed away on Sunday.

The average age of menopause is 51, and menopause itself only lasts for one day, because it simply marks the one-year anniversary of your last period. Perimenopause, on the other hand, refers to the period of time in which you’ll have cycles, but start to experience ‘menopausal’ symptoms. Three quarters of women experience significant symptoms during the perimenopause, yet there is little in the way of evidence based information available. Comical descriptions of symptoms including hot flushes and mood swings are widespread and prevent essential details on the myriad of other symptoms and signs a woman is perimenopausal. Maisie Hill is a women's health advocate and author of Perimenopause Power. She joins Emma to discuss the symptoms and her toolkit of tips and techniques women can use to help themselves. Last year the National Crime Agency assessed there were at least 300,000 individuals posing a sexual threat to children in the UK, and warned of a spike in online child sexual abuse offending during the pandemic. The Stop It Now helpline, a part of child protection charity the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, is a nationwide service which offers advice and support for men viewing illegal sexual images of under 18s or feeling they are on the verge of doing so. They have reported an increase in people seeking help for their illegal online behaviour since the beginning of the 2020 Covid-19 lockdowns. Emma speaks to Donald Findlater, Director of the helpline since it started in 2002. The pioneering Egyptian feminist Nawal El Saadawi has died at the age of 89. She was a doctor, feminist and writer who was described as "the Simone de Beauvoir of the Arab World" and as "Egypt's most radical woman'. BBC Cairo correspondent Sally Nabil joins Emma to talk about her life and work.

Med anledning av att den egyptiska författaren, feministen och psykiatrikern Nawal el Saadawi gått bort återvänder vi till ett reportage av Karine Mannerfelt från 2011 mitt under den arabiska våren. Möt en då 80-årig rebell på hemmaplan i Kairo. Farmor gav mig min första viktiga lektion i livet, den om rättvisa. Hon ställde borgmästaren mot väggen för att han stal bybornas bomull och gav den till kungen och de engelska kolonisatörerna. Nawal el Saadawi är arabvärldens kvinnliga rebell som i decennier stridit mot maktmisbruk och för kvinnors rättigheter. Redan när hon var tio år drömde hon att Egypten skulle bli fritt. När hon var knappt 20 år protesterade hon på Tahrirtorget för första gången. När hon i februari 2011 gjorde detsamma och diktatorn Mubarak tvingades avgå var det en dröm som gick i uppfyllelse. Karine Mannerfelt träffade henne i Kairo våren 2011, i hennes lägenhet med milsvid utsikt mot Nilen.

Earlier today, we lost one of Egypt's foremost feminist writers and political activists, Dr Nawal El Saadawi (born 1931). A uniquely courageous woman who inspired so many, women as well as men, to stand up against their oppressors. Her outspokenness landed her in prison under Sadat's regime, and this is where in 1981 she wrote "مذكراتي في سجن النساء" (Memoirs from the women's prison

Parents and educators play an integral role in serving us narratives through our formative years; narratives that will shape the way we value others and look at life throughout our lives. This month we submersed ourselves in diverse narratives. We watched Beyoncé’s Black is King; Parasite, The Host, both directed by Bong Joon-ho; and the Lovecraft Country series developed by Misha Green. We’ve spent our time reading the wise and creative words of Chimamanda Adichie, James Baldwin, Nawal El Saadawi, Angie Thomas, Sobonfu Somé, Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Dubois, James Weldon Johnson.In this episode, we discuss how our adopted narratives shape the way we view life and the need for expanding our narratives to create more inclusive experiences. We mentioned the work of two very important thinkers.

Trump says America was tamed. Tamed? With slavery and genocide? He says Americans must be proud of their history for the country to move forward. Hell! They don't know their history. They aren't taught true history; just propaganda. Egyptian activist Dr. Nawal El Saadawi says democracy cannot exist in a capitalist society or one dominated by religion. I agree and will talk about the absolute truth of this statement.

This week we've pulled together a really special podcast in celebration of International Women's Day. The gang held Q&As with 8 women in business, tech, media and advocacy roles to discuss what feminism means today, what they hope it can become, and how we can all better engage with it. We had a really great, diverse set of responses representing a range of feminist thought. A definite theme was just how considered, positive and inclusive feminism can be - contrary to its caricatured representation in the media. ___ Our participants: Áine Mulloy - co-founder of Girl Crew, a social media app for women and girls (Twitter: @AineMulloy @GirlCrewHQ App: bit.ly/2EYw8y3) Genista T-A - works in publishing, book-worm, has views on important stuff, friend of the pod (Twitter: @geninldn @Bloomsburybooks) Jasmine Andersson - investigations journalist at (LGBTQ+) Pink News, and co-founder of The 2nd Source tackling harrassment in media (Twitter: @the__chez @PinkNews @The2ndSource) Jennifer Riggins - tech marketer, and work-at-home first-time mum of a baby boy (Twitter: @jkriggins) Jo Osborne - Founder of SciApps and SkinNinja, an app uncovering ingredients in women's skincare products (Twitter: @thisisJoOsbourne @SkinNinjaApp, App: https://skinninja.com/) Season of the Bitch - Socialist Feminist Podcast from the USA (Twitter: @seasonoftheB, Site: https://www.seasonoftheb.com/).

Egyptian writer, Nawal el Saadawi, took an active part in the Tahrir Square.

So when the Tahrir Square revolution came, I found myself there, as if I was living my dream."
Farmor gav mig min första viktiga lektion i livet, den om rättvisa. Hon ställde borgmästaren mot väggen för att han stal bybornas bomull och gav den till kungen och de engelska kolonisatörerna. Nawal el Saadawi - författare, feminist och psykiatriker blir 80 i år. Hon är arabvärldens kvinnliga rebell som i decennier stridit mot maktmisbruk och för kvinnors rättigheter. Redan när hon var tio år drömde hon att Egypten skulle bli fritt. När hon var knappt 20 år protesterade hon på Tahrirtorget för första gången. När hon nu i februari gjorde detsamma och diktatorn Mubarak tvingades avgå var det en dröm som gick i uppfyllelse. Karine Mannerfelt träffar henne i Kairo våren 2011, i hennes lägenhet med milsvid utsikt mot Nilen.
