TimesTalks: Nadia Murad

Join TimesTalks for an inspiring evening of conversation and storytelling with Nadia Murad Basee Taha — a Nobel Peace Prize nominee, Yazidi human rights activist, and the first Goodwill Ambassador for the Dignity of Survivors of Human Trafficking of the United Nations. Murad will discuss her upcoming book “The Last Girl,” described as an intimate memoir of survival, with New York Times foreign correspondent Somini Sengupta. Nadia’s story – as a witness to the Islamic State’s brutality, a survivor of rape, a refugee, a Yazidi – is a call to action, a testament to the human will to survive, and a love letter to a lost country, a fragile community, and a family torn apart by war.
