Bonjour ! This video is about the representation of arab/brown/muslim women in Western media. I very much welcome your feedback on this on, it's definitely a sensitive topic and the term islamophobia is only starting to gain recognition. This video basically looks at the special status arab/muslim/brown women receive in the media and how it's affecting their lives in the West and in the Middle East, especially in Palestine.
