'I love busking - but I get harassed by men'

Available for over a year

Nehanda Ferguson is a busker from Cannock, and she's been raising awareness of the sort of sexual harassment she experiences whilst she's singing. Nehanda says men regularly make unwanted comments on her appearance, sexual innuendos and persistently ask her to stay in a hotel - which all makes her "skin crawl with violation". And videos of Nehanda directly confronting men while she's singing now have thousands of views - and she says she's had enough.
