Asian American Writers Workshop | #AAWWat30: Muslim Representation in Media @AAWWNYC | Uploaded November 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Twenty years after 9/11, leading Muslim screenwriters come together to discuss the state of Muslim American representation onscreen. Panelists will wrestle with the multi-faceted challenges of representing a tremendously diverse population, exploring how far we’ve come and, just as critically, how far we still have to go. Featuring Aman Ali, Zeshawn Ali, Aizzah Fatima, Sahar Jahani, and moderated by Adam Gagan.
In commemoration of the Asian American Writers’ Workshop’s 30th anniversary, AAWW at 30 will explore the values and ideas that lie at the heart of the Workshop’s mission. From the complexities of representation to the need for an artistic home to interrogating our editorial and archival legacies, this series of events will serve not only as a retrospective of our rich and layered history, but also as a resounding call to envision our future.
