MYRIAM GURBA SPEAKS TO FEMINIST GIANT MONA ELTAHAWY ABOUT REVOLUTION!

September 9, 2020 by Myriam Leave a Comment

A conversation with the author of The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls
September 9, 2020
Mona Eltahawy secured my eternal devotion after I first read her self-described declaration of faith: “Fuck the patriarchy.” I, too, am a member of this faith and I live my faith through guerrilla-style tactics which I execute daily. My favorite tactic is withholding laughter from unfunny men who are under the impression that they are otherwise. A feminist giant, Mona is a writer, activist and revolutionary whose most recent book, The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls, not only defends women’s anger, it celebrates it. I spoke with Mona about the radical changes she’s embarking on as a writer and publisher, technology and revolution, sexual and romantic terrorism, and ugliness.

This interview is part of my new magazine, Tasteful Rude, launching December 8 as part of the Brick House Cooperative. For a transcript of my interview with Mona, go to TastefulRude.com.
