Richardis: Muslim Migrants in Germany

Yasmine Mohammed Podcast

Richardis is a German feminist who became an activist after experiencing stalking at the hands of an abusive man who kept using his status as a Muslim migrant to try and reverse victim and offender. She also had to witness a friend fall victim to a Muslim grooming gang  as an underage girl. Today, she’s part of a wider movement that fights violence against women and girls and vehemently opposes trivializing honor violence, the Islamic veil, FGM etc. She experiences the atmosphere in Germany in regards to discussing these matters as stifling as cultural relativism and accusations of racism are used to shut women down. This is her first time speaking publicly after years of fear of retaliation from her stalker and the wider culture, as well as overcoming doubts whether her story even matters.
