Growing up in a remote village in Somalia, Sahra was subjected to a brutal form of FGM known as infibulation at the tender age of eight. The procedure, performed without anesthesia or consent, left her with unimaginable pain, scarring, and trauma.

Sahra's childhood was filled with shame and fear. She lived in constant agony, unable to participate in normal activities like running or playing. The scars from the procedure were a constant reminder of the violation she had endured.

Escape and Refuge

Determined to escape her nightmare, Sahra fled to a refugee camp in Kenya at just 14. There, she met a compassionate aid worker who provided her with medical care and counseling. For the first time, Sahra felt a glimmer of hope.

After years of recovery and therapy, Sahra decided to share her story with the world. She believed that by speaking out, she could help end the practice of FGM and inspire other survivors.

Reclamation and Empowerment

"Cut Off" is not just a memoir of trauma. It is a testament to Sahra's unwavering spirit and the power of healing. Through writing and public speaking, Sahra has become an advocate for women's rights and a tireless campaigner against FGM.

Sahra's advocacy work has taken her across the globe, where she has shared her story with political leaders, human rights organizations, and countless individuals. Her message is clear: FGM is a violation of human rights, and it must end.

International Impact

"Cut Off" has had a profound impact on the international fight against FGM. Sahra's story has raised awareness about the practice and its devastating consequences. Her advocacy has helped to influence policy changes and promote prevention efforts in countries where FGM is still prevalent.

A Beacon of Hope

For survivors of FGM, "Cut Off" is a beacon of hope. It shows that even after experiencing such trauma, healing and empowerment are possible. Sahra's story is a reminder that no matter how dark the past, there is always light on the horizon.

A Call to Action

"Cut Off" is more than just a book. It is a call to action. It challenges us to confront the reality of FGM and to work together to end this barbaric practice. By reading Sahra's story and supporting her advocacy, we can help create a world where every girl is free from the fear and pain of FGM.
