Photographs: Dan Callister for the Guardian; Robert E. Rutledge TW: sexual assault, regime and police violence I am writing this ten years after I died. I am able to write this because the Mona I used to be died ten years ago so that the Mona I had to become could survive.
"I am the daughter of the taboos and silences from which I fought to free myself. I am the sister of every woman struggling against the oppressive forces that have suffocated us at home and on the streets and which find their power reflected back to them by the state. That trifecta of patriarchy: state, street, and home." Thank you.
