## Resource

This week on For Mannerless Women, Adelle Onyango sits down with activist, civic creator and political commentator Tatiana Gicheru for a powerful conversation about courage, womanhood, activism and choosing yourself unapologetically. Tatiana opens up about: Standing up to authority from a young age Finding her voice through blogging & storytelling Pleasure, shame & reclaiming ownership of women’s bodies The 2024 Finance Bill protests & documenting injustice Fear, surveillance & continuing to speak up anyway Internet backlash, misogyny & online bullying Intergenerational sisterhood & learning from older women Why women need to stop shrinking themselves This episode is a reminder that speaking up doesn’t mean you’re fearless, it means you choose your values anyway.
