How many times can you pick yourself up after life strikes you down? Where do you find the strength to escape religious fundamentalism?

In this episode I talk to Canadian human rights activist Yasmine Mohammed about being married off to a member of Al Qaeda, re-learning to be free and surviving the betrayal of those who are supposed to protect you.

Yasmine Mohammed is the author of Unveiled: How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam and founder of Free Hearts Free Minds an organization that provides psychological support for freethinkers living within Muslim majority countries where the state-sanctioned punishment for leaving Islam is death.

Stephen and I talk about my new book ‘Unveiled: How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam’. We also reflect on the infamous Sam Harris Vs Ben Affleck bust-up on Bill Maher’s Real Time and talk ‘internalized misogyny’, security concerns, ‘American Atheists’, the Coronavirus and China’s culpability.
