Hello from South Africa! I am here for my new job with the Aspen Institute’s New Voices fellowship. One of our current year fellows is Elsa D’Silva, an amazing anti-street harassment activist in India who co-founded Safe City two years ago.
One of last year’s fellows is writer Sisonke Msimang who wrote a very powerful New York Times oped last month on street harassment and backlash against African women advancing. She was briefly in town today and I got to meet with her, too.
Meeting role models, allies, compatriots in efforts to stop street harassment always makes me so happy 🙂
