Send us Fan MailWelcome to Flash Back Friday! With 600+ episodes, we're excited to revisit some of our favorites with our new listeners (and maybe new to our regular listeners). This week we're excited to highlight a film that's streaming and available in select theaters nationwide, Seyran Ates: Sex, Revolution and Islam.Seyran Ates is a bisexual human rights activist, lawyer, and female imam who is fighting the patriarchy and changing the face of Islam toward a more just and equal world. Sounds easy, right? We sit down with director/writer Nefise Ozkal Lorentzen about why she felt compelled to share this story, some interesting challenges she had along the way, what a sexual revolution really means, and our ability to create change. Seyran Ates: Sex, Revolution and Islam is a powerful documentary that is certain to both inspire you, and show you what a more equitable world can look like.You can follow director/writer Nefise Ozkal Lorentzen on IG & Twitter & FBFollow Seyran Ates: Sex, Revolution and Islam at Integral FilmThanks for listening and for your support!
