Fans of Shamin Sarif: Please Read!
I just became privvy to this email sent to me by a FB user. Let's show Shamin some support! Disseminate the word like it's a seed of a crop that'll multiply easily and feed millions of people during a very bad famine!!!!!!!!
====================
Hello
After all the drama in S. Africa over The World Unseen & is it was all over the press, TV & radio, Shamim’s dad was contacted by one of his largest clients to say he heard about Shamim being gay & wanted to know if it was true
When Shamim’s dad confirmed that she was, the client (a conservative Indian Muslim from S. Africa) cancelled all his business with Shamim’s dad and will encourage others to do the same! Very kind of him!!
Shamim’s mom was crying away & her dad was furious with Shamim for being open with the press!!! Of course they blame Shamim for having the courage and the guts to be open about her sexuality and for being comfortable in her skin
It is shocking & disgusting that people use this kind of bullying and pressure (from the business angle) to exert their muscle and pressure and to punish Shamim’s dad that his daughter is gay
Shamim of course feels terrible for her dad
Can you please share as this with your list as this is horrific behaviour & horrendous intimidation techniques
Thanks
