RalindaSpeaks in conversation with Arab Egyptian-American visual artist and social justice educator, Tammy Abrahem. She shares her journey as a Muslim woman navigating American life, at the intersection of religion, whiteness, and Eurocentric beauty standards. We unpack the MENA category and its omission on the US Census, how anti-Blackness shows up in Arab communities, and the impact of colorism on Muslim identity. Finally, we delve into what it means to be an expectant mother in 2020, navigating the global pandemic and social unrest. Join us, let’s be in conversation!
