Sahiyo invites you to join the second iteration of Sahiyo Discusses! Designed to bring people together through literature, art, and media, Sahiyo Discusses hosts quarterly meetings with activists and allies in Sahiyo’s network to discuss a  chosen piece of media. With themes including feminism, equality, bodily autonomy, women-centered movements, and sexual empowerment, this club will focus on uplifting the stories and experiences of women everywhere.  

On February 6th, 2022 the group will meet virtually for Sahiyo Discusses: A Fractured Life by Shabnam Samuel. Shabnam Samuel is a writer, coach, social media trainer, and the founder of the Panchgani Writers’ Retreat, an international writing retreat based out of Panchgani, India. Her memoir, A Fractured Life, explores her life growing up in 1960s India after being abandoned by her parents.

Sahiyo Discusses members will have the opportunity to discuss this book with Shabnam and ask pertinent questions. Admission to Sahiyo Discusses is based on a suggested minimum donation of $25.00 USD per event. Donors who contribute $200 or more will have access to Sahiyo Discusses events for a full calendar year.
