Dr. Mary Fariba Afsari is truly legendary. A mobile clinic. A lifetime's work advocating for women's health. She is the embodiment of joy and courage, clear-thinking resilience and creativity. You can now pre-order this beauty of a book, and if you're in the Portland area on April 10, please come and join us for the book launch at Powell's Books. It is not to be missed. We'll be celebrating four generations of extraordinary Iranian women, with a special guest poetry reading by Mary's daughter.
In Mary's words: "Please join us for a spirited talk about our place in this world in this moment in time. About our love for humanity. And children. And mothers. And the people who love them. And how we CAN carve out small spaces that make real differences, even when we wonder if it’s possible.
This will be a conversation full of hope. With laughter and joy. Our way. Join us."
