You can’t compartmentalise liberation.

In Episode 4 of Atypical Dikkatein Season 2, we speak with Kinza Jamal, a Queer Pasmanda Muslim feminist and SRHR-J practitioner, about what it means to show up for justice that’s truly intersectional. Because you can’t talk about SRHR without talking about caste, Islamophobia, fascism, or capitalism. Because queer people aren’t just queer, they’re impacted by economic policies, domestic violence laws, family planning, and more.

Tune in to listen to Kinza, who reminds us: we're not just service receivers, we’re political beings with lived knowledge. And if our movements don’t center these experiences, they’re not working.
