Anuscheh Amir-Khalili was born in 1977 in Iran. At 8, she fled to Germany because of the Iran-Iraq war. Today, her mission is to empower women with similar backgrounds. She founded Flamingo e.V., a Berlin-based NGO supporting refugee women in Germany. With Band of Sisters, she launched a project focusing on the feminist cohesion of women* from the Middle East.
Look to the Middle East for your lessons in feminism, and take notes. There are countless examples of men in the Middle East standing up for women’s rights.
