DESCRIPTION:A powerful journey of self-empowerment\, body positivity and mother - daughter relationships from Muslim feminist Zeba Talkhani. 27-year-old Zeba Talkhani charts her experiences growing up in Saudi Arabia amid patriarchal customs reminiscent of The Handmaid's Tale\, and her journey to find freedom abroad in India\, Germany and the UK as a young woman.\n\n\n[caption id="attachment_5718" align="alignright" width="180"] Photo: Chris Boland[/caption]\nTalkhani offers a fresh perspective on living as an outsider and examines her relationship with her mother and the challenges she faced when she experienced hair loss at a young age. Rejecting the traditional path her culture had chosen for her\, Talkhani became financially independent and married on her own terms in the UK.\nDrawing on her personal experiences Talkhani shows how she fought for the right to her individuality as a feminist Muslim and refused to let negative experiences define her.\nChaired by Lucy Popescu\nThis event is kindly sponsored by
