How have media depictions of Muslims been altering lately? Rosemary Pennington, writer of the brand new guide Pop Islam: Seeing American Muslims in Fashionable Media, joins us to debate the place of Islam in American media. We talk about how Muslims have turned to popular culture to broaden concepts about Islam, how some Muslim performers have used humor to current a extra strong image of Muslim life, what we should always make of the depictions of Muslims in exhibits like Ms. Marvel and Ramy, and what the place of Muslims in popular culture reveals about Islam in america at this time.
