Fatima Ibrahim, Sudan photographed by Nadav Kander in London Her hands are now at rest. Once they were bound. Both by her convictions, and by the strong arm of her government. Fatima Ibrahim. A writer. A speaker. A union leader for Sudanese women's rights. Her husband won an International Peace Medal. At the same moment he was executed, she was imprisoned. Denied food and medicine, Fatima fell into a coma. Yet few details of her ordeal are forgotten. Today, because of Amnesty International, and people like you, Fatima is considered lucky. She is alive. Today, she is president of the Women's International Democratic Federation.
