‘We Broke Their Homelands’: Creator Traces 100 Years of Western Intervention and the Refugee Crisis
September 20, 2026
Nawal El Saadawi, feminist writer, spent her life saying the thing most people are too afraid to say out loud: schools aren’t just teaching you facts. They’re teaching you what not to question.
Gender roles. Class hierarchy. Colonial history. Government power. El Saadawi argued that education, everywhere in the world, is built to discourage exactly the questions that would threaten those structures — training people to memorize, not to interrogate.
She paid for saying this. Jailed by her own government. Fired from her medical career. Censored, exiled, targeted for decades — because a woman who taught people to think for themselves was more dangerous to power than any weapon.
“Unveil the mind” wasn’t a slogan for her. It was a life’s work. The real revolution doesn’t start with a protest. It starts with someone finally asking the question they were trained not to ask.
