English
SARABAH follows Senegalese rapper Sister Fa’s journey from female hip hop pioneer in Dakar to committed activist, focusing on her 2010 campaign to end FGC in her home village, Thionck Essyl. Along the way we see different sides of the issue: a radio caller says only cut women can be sexually satisfied, a city official describes horrific scenes of childbirth problems she witnessed as a midwife, and a young girl confides that her family defies the law to continue the practice. Despite fear of being rejected, Fatou dives into eloquent interactions with students and female elders. Her story is an inspiring example of grassroots activism based on respect and hope.
