“Frank, riveting and passionate, Maria Kiminta’s courageous story tells you why you will want to support the global movement against FGM. Female genital mutilation, in this survivor’s tale, leaves no doubt as to its nature as an assault on human dignity better erased from anyone’s ‘culture’.”
Neneh Bojang, President, EuroNet-FGM and Director, IAC Norway“Maria Kiminta, a courageous Maasai who resides in Germany, wants her voice to count in efforts to stop FGM. For that reason she has written a powerful, persuasive book addressed to all people of good will who also wish to see the abuse of female child ren end. A must read!”
Lorraine Koonce Farahmand, Esq. Solicitor of England and Wales, NY lawyer and gender advocate“Maria Kiminta writes, ‘… traditions responsible for FGM are stubborn, but cultures of cutting can change.’ By speaking out and writing, she hopes to enhance the welfare of her people. We should all applaud her courage and sincerity.”
