BTW, I so appreciate the link on your blogroll. I think I meant to link you on my sidebar a while back and somehow this task got lost in the shuffle. I have a hard time keeping up sometimes, I’m sorry. I’ll get you linked today.

Thank you for this awareness-raising article. I think Equality Now does a pretty good job of awareness raising and activism on the topic of FGM as well. They are at http://www.equalitynow.org
