Cell 22 by Monica Smit

“Monica Smit is one of the great heroes during the pandemic.”

Robert F. Kennedy Jnr.

Founder of Reignite Democracy Australia, and independent journalist, Monica Smit, became well-known during the COVID era. She spoke out against the government’s handling of the pandemic, and her journalism, political stance and human rights advocacy saw her arrested and imprisoned in solitary confinement for 22 days.

But Monica wasn’t always strong and outspoken. In fact, it was only through a long journey of shameful mistakes and personal suffering that she became a woman of conviction, and a person who dared stand up and fight for justice.

Monica’s tell-all expose is a real, raw, and courageous account of how a former party girl became a political prisoner during the world’s longest and harshest lockdowns and what she learnt about life and humanity along the way.

“I stripped my soul to the bone; there is nothing left unsaid. I just pray it’s not in vain and inspires someone…” Monica Smit.
