Join journalist Shahed Ezaydi for an evening of conversation about faith, identity and feminism.

​In conversation with a leading host, she’ll explore what feminism means to her when it comes to the idea of faith and what it means to be a truly intersectional feminist.

​Every book and ticket comes with a copy of The Othered Woman which Shahed will sign and dedicate on the night.

​About The Book: The Othered Woman

​‘An urgent, vital contribution to the feminist conversation – one that tears through the comfortable myth of universal sisterhood’ – Alya Mooro, author of The Greater Freedom

​Growing up, journalist Shahed Ezaydi was often asked how she could call herself a feminist and still practise her faith. It’s a question that reveals a deeper issue that Muslim women often face: being ignored in feminist spaces entirely, or cast as passive victims in need of being saved. This mindset fuels gendered Islamophobia and a narrow white feminism. But Muslim women don’t need rescuing.

​The Othered Woman is the book Ezaydi wishes her younger self could have turned to. It challenges the myths of how Muslim women are oppressed and who by, and shows that these myths translate into very real harm both in Britain and around the world, showcasing the voices of intersectional feminists who are fighting for liberation on their own terms.

​Accessible and compelling, this is urgent reading for anyone who considers themselves a feminist.
