Zana Ramadani
Born 1984

Zana Ramadani (born 1984) is a German politician and feminist activist. Ramadani, who is of Albanian extraction and from a Muslim background, is chair of the Junge Union, the youth organization of the CDU (Conservative Party) in Wilnsdorf in Central Germany.[1] She came to prominence when she founded the German branch of the feminist protest group FEMEN in 2012, and was involved in a number of topless protests against sexual exploitation. One high-profile protest involved invading the stage of Heidi Klum's television casting show Germany's Next Topmodel during the finale of cycle 8 sporting the slogan "Heidi horror picture show" as a critique of the beauty ideal propagated by the fashion industry. In another, the group appeared on the street in Hamburg's red-light district (the Reeperbahn), Ramadani wearing the slogan "Destroy the Sex Industry."[2]
