Kopano Matlwa tells the story of a young doctor who struggles to find  her voice and speak out in defense of patients who have been  discriminated against in South Africa's political climate. The theme of  femininity and blood run throughout the book, while exploring xenophobia  towards black nationalists, further unraveling its impact in general on  the human condition.      Book: Period Pain by Kopano Matlwa  Guest: Wewe       Thanks for listening!    C O N N E C T :  instagram: @afroreadspodcast  facebook: AfroReads Podcast  twitter: @afro_reads      B U S I N E S S: For business inquiries, please contact:  [email protected]       Learning expands great souls.  ~Namibian Prove
