A Hollywood history of Muslim tropes - with Maytha ALHASSEN

JINS

👩🏻‍🏫 Today on @jins_podast, I’m very pleased to welcome Maytha Al-Hassen. Maytha is a journalist, poet, scholar, and professor. Her work spans social justice, academic research, media engagement, and artistic expression, aiming to create and popularize authentic narratives for Muslims in popular culture. Maytha has contributed to CNN and Huffington Post, among others. She has performed at significant venues, including TED conferences. Her Ph.D. in American Studies and Ethnicity from USC reflects her dedication to changing narratives around Arab and Muslim communities through media, education, and pop culture. Following Professor Jack Shaheen’s steps, she wrote a compelling document named Haqq & Hollywood (which means “Hollywood & the Truth” in Arabic) that was the basis of my exploration.
