Log Kiya Kaheen Gay (What will people say?)  

We all grew up hearing this phrase. With every new step, we stopped, to free ourselves not from our own fear but the fears society imposed upon us. And it never was an easy task, but no matter how many times we freed ourselves, another fear awaited and affected our growth. Let’s just pause and think how it made us feel!!. 

Should we really care about the fears that make us question our self-worth? To see what Adeel Afzal has to say, watch this candid conversation. Adeel Afzal is a writer, director, and an actor who will discuss how it is important to listen to everyone - especially women and girls - who talk about gender justice and the grim tradition of talking about the reasons they faced gender-based violence and not supporting them to access justice needs to end.
