Queer narratives in Nigeria: Azeenarh Mohammed
Chitra Nagarajan
An intimate portrait of what it means to be a queer woman living in a country where a same-sex relationship can lead to a 14-year jail term, She Called Me Woman explores first love, what it means to navigate same-sex desire and spirituality, growing up gender non-conforming, and overcoming societal expectations. We met up with two of the book’s editors, Azeenarh Mohammed, a queer lawyer and feminist, and Chitra Nagarajan, an activist, researcher and writer, to find out how this beautiful collection came to be.
