Raizel, Jasmin, Kassy, Caroline, and Ashley take to the steps of NYC's City Hall as part of NYC's first ever National Period Day rally. They speak to Hannah Samimi, one of the co-founders of the NYC rally, as well as councilwoman Carlina Rivera, about how menstrual equity goes beyond free pads in the bathroom.

Episode 14: National Period Day Rally NYC

Sssh! Periods is a biweekly podcast started by seven 8th graders from the Bronx, New York. Every two weeks (ish) Kathaleen, Raizel, Litzy, Caroline, Ashley, Jasmin, and Kassy bring listeners their takes on women's issues (which often circle back to periods, as the name of the podcast would suggest). This podcast was originally created as a submission to National Public Radio's first-ever Student Podcast Challenge, which it then won. 

You can also find us on Apple Podcasts and BuzzSprout.
