‘And the Truth is Savage and Dangerous’ — Nawal El Saadawi Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Literary Tee — Muscle Tank

“They said, “You are a savage and dangerous woman.” I am speaking the truth. And the truth is savage and dangerous.” Nawal El Saadawi gave these words to the condemned narrator of her 1975 novel Woman at Point Zero, drawn from a real woman she met on death row in Cairo — someone punished precisely for telling the truth. In El Saadawi’s telling, the danger others named was simply accuracy, spoken by a woman who kept saying it out loud.
