About this listen

On the wedding night of her first arranged marriage, 15-year-old Jaha learned that she had undergone Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) as an infant. That painful discovery, coupled with her experiences with a second arranged marriage, set Jaha on her path as an activist – a courageous mission that would require her to brave hostility in her community and family, and even attempts on her life.

Despite the challenges, and with ever-growing determination, Jaha founded Safe Hands for Girls, an organisation that succeeded in having FGM banned in Gambia. She is now working to eradicate FGM and forced child marriage worldwide by 2030 and running to be the next President of The Gambia.

I Will Scream to the World! recounts Jaha’s ongoing, uphill journey to be seen as a survivor, activist, but most of all as a human. She dives into her childhood to show the root causes of her crusading, shares her personal and professional life, and explores, as only a survivor can, a practice that while violent and troubling, is often culturally misunderstood.

Critic Reviews

'Jaha is truly an authentic woman telling her deeply moving story that goes beyond being a survivor and global activist. She also reminds us what it is to be human. Jaha epitomizes a Great Dame.' (Sharon Kelly Hake, Founder and President of Great Dames)
'I found Jaha’s story deeply moving. She has dedicated her life to fighting against FGM, child marriage, and financial inequity on a global scale. A must read for all men and women who want to elevate women.' (Betty Hines, founder, Women Elevating Women (W.E.W.))
