In this incredible horrific and educational episode Dr. Nina Smart shares her story about how a girl from Romania and Africa avoided getting her clitoris removed in a ritual that is still happening today in unbelievably high numbers, even though it is a human rights violation at the United Nations. Dr. Marissa gives her the Beneficial Presence on the planet Award for making it her life mission to save wild flowers, founding SWF International to keep girls and women from being mutilated in a secret society that is a strong tradition in the West African country of Sierra Leone.
