How can we eliminate period poverty and bridge gaps in menstrual education?
In this episode of The Conversationalist Podcast, The Conversationalist Founder and CEO Sophie Beren sits down with menstrual equity advocate Ameer Abdul. As the National Campaign Manager at Period, a youth-led nonprofit striving to de-stigmatize menstruation and end period poverty, Ameer discusses his experience as a male in the menstrual equity space and how he raises awareness about period poverty across the country. He also shares advice on how to fight against menstruation stigmas and create change in how it is spoken about in modern society.
Ameer Abdul graduated from Ohio State as a biology major and pre-med student. He co-founded the Ohio State chapter of Period and successfully pressured the school into supplying each bathroom on campus with free menstrual products. He has also publicly advocated for the end of the “pink tax” in Ohio.
