"Everything feels trivial next to the cries of Afghan women." - Elif Shafak
Today, in light of this week's events in Afghanistan, we are releasing a special episode of the FIA podcast. Through our network of extraordinary women, we were connected with Sahar Salahi, a first-generation Afghan American, whose family fled Afghanistan in the 1980s. In a real-time, authentic, and raw conversation, she shares with us her story as well as her reaction and first-hand accounts she's receiving from family members in Afghanistan.
The FIA podcast was created to amplify the voices of women and enable them to share their stories, experiences, and reactions in real-time, safe space. We are here to listen and bear witness in our mission to provide women with new narratives that invoke community, support, safety and validation.
We proudly stand with our Afghan sisters and will continue to amplify those voices that are helping us to understand, process, and act in order to show up for those who need it.
