Nasima Akter, the Bangladeshi Surf Star living the Push and Pull between Dreams and Traditional Values

Akter married at 16 and her husband and his family have forbidden her from surfing.

“Nasima tries very hard to do the things that are expected of her, but when they have a fight or she just gets to the end of her rope with him she will reconnect with her surfing community.” However, over the years those breaks are frequent, but just that, breaks. “She eventually goes back to her husband, so right now she is not surfing,” Kessinger reveals.
