Confronting my grandma and my nation over FGM

Ifrah Ahmed campaigns against female genital mutilation (FGM). It's a harrowing procedure she herself endured as an 8-year-old in Somalia. This interview contains upsetting descriptions. Ifrah now lives in Ireland, where she helped ban FGM in 2012. She was one of the first Somali women to speak publicly about FGM, and has challenged the Somali president about the practice. She founded the Ifrah Foundation, a charity devoted to stopping FGM around the world. She told Outlook's Emily Webb her story.
