🎥Watch A Day In The Life of Kaya Adiz, a Drama Queens short film that highlights the ways the sexual violence can manifest in the lives of Kayayei women.

Picture this, Ama is a uni student. She woke up today to see all her class and school groups were ablaze with texts and tags. After properly going through her phone, she realized that her nudes were online. Comments said her ex posted them so they believe it is her. (1/4) #GBV
It went really well. We had a really meaningful conversation on inclusion as well as what our experiences as activists (and on safe space, trans inclusion and movement visibility).
🔊For September, we take our #Speakeasy online!
On Friday 26th September we’ll be exploring via Twitter Spaces the #Unsaid Things of Feminist Organising
