Muslim Women Are Everything is out as a book, ebook and an audio book now!

I'm a medical doctor, journalist and author. My first book, The Impatient Dr. Lange: One Man's Fight to end the HIV Epidemic, tells the story of my mentor who was killed when Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 was shot out of the sky. Dr. Lange dedicated his life to fighting HIV and was searching for a cure when he was killed.

My next books, Viral BS, (Johns Hopkins University Press, November 2020) is about medical myths and how health hoaxes can travel farther than accurate information.

“You can't go against the NFL. They will squash, he told the PBS news show Frontline.

Omalu”
Seema Yasmin, Viral BS: Medical Myths and Why We Fall for Them

“Feminist blogs and social media sites declared Mehreen “a destroyer of trolls,” “a legend,” and “an icon.” For this attitude, as well as for her tenacity, hopefulness, and hard work, Mehreen was awarded the feminist Edna Ryan Grand Stirrer award in 2017, particularly for her role in the decriminalization of abortion. She was named one of the one hundred most influential engineers in Australia, and for women in Pakistan, Australia, and around the world, she has won over hearts for being unapologetically, loudly, beautifully a “brown, Muslim, migrant, feminist woman.”
Seema Yasmin, Muslim Women Are Everything: Stereotype-Shattering Stories of Courage, Inspiration, and Adventure

“Fawzia soon realized that real power lay in writing her own lines, not letting white men dictate her dialogue and movements.”
