Today, we’re telling the incredible story of Phoolan Devi’s life. We talk about how a young girl- once sold for sex in exchange for a cow- became a bandit queen, a gang leader, a prisoner, and eventually a politician in Uttar Pradesh, India before she was assassinated. This is a story of sexual assault, revenge, arranged marriages, feminism, and, of course, murder. Listen now wherever you get your podcasts. Don’t forget to rate, review, and subscribe!
