We invite you to join our interactive discussion on the Voices to End FGM/C digital storytelling project. This project is mobilizing a critical mass of storytellers and activists from across the globe by bringing people together to share and heal from their experiences of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C), connect and grow as leaders in their own communities, and create short videos calling for an end to this harmful practice. During this session, we will get a chance to watch some videos and talk more about this harmful practice and how it impacts those living in the U.S. as well. This screening and discussion will be hosted by Gulabi Stories in collaboration with Sahiyo, StoryCenter, and Asian Women's Shelter.

On May 9th, at 4:00 PM EDT, we’ll be hosting a screening of the newest Voices to End FGM/C videos, developed out of Sahiyo, Asian Women's Shelter, and StoryCenter’s October-December 2022 digital storytelling workshop with survivors and advocates against female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C). Along with viewing these poignant stories, some of which have yet to be released to the public, attendees will hear from some of the storytellers themselves about their experiences. Since January 2021, due to limited in-person events resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, Sahiyo and StoryCenter have hosted digital storytelling workshops on a virtual platform. In the fall of 2022, we invited 7 U.S.-based advocates and/or survivors of FGM/C to share their stories. The Asian Women’s Shelter also collaborated with us for this workshop. The Voices to End FGM/C project supports storytellers in sharing and healing from experiences of FGM/C, connecting and growing as leaders in their own communities, and creating short videos calling for an end to this harmful practice. Amy Hill (StoryCenter), Mariya Taher (Sahiyo), and Orchid Pusey (AWS) will moderator this event. Our panelists include storytellers Catherine Cox and Farrah Dalal.
