Ramadan Mubarak!!! This episode is a re-airing of previously aired Ramadan & Eid ul Fitr special. I talked to Sana Rizvi about fasting within neoliberal academia, periods, and Ramzan memories. I talked to Nausheen Pasha about her journey to loving Ramadan, to Melinda González about true spirit of fasting and being mindful, and with Rose Deighton about appreciating the simplicity of Ramadan during times of COVID. Finally, I talked to Lamiyah Bahrainwala about celebrating Eid during a pandemic and with Zainab Kabba about her varied but wonderful experiences  of Eid around the world.

Dr. Elora Shehabuddin is Professor of Transnational Asian Studies and Core Faculty in the Center for the Study of Women, Gender, and Sexuality. She is the author of Sisters in the Mirror: A History of Muslim Women and the Global Politics of Feminism. Today we talk about the stories of feminist struggles that provide a more nuanced picture, the conversation between Western feminists and Global South or Transnational feminists, and why it is so hard to have the more difficult conversations needed within feminist struggles. #Feminism #GlobalSouth #Intersectionality
