World Hijab Day recently passed, and it inspired us as a jumping-off point to do a general episode about books by Muslim authors. We have decided to refrain from any "discussions" when talking about books about or by authors of identities that we don't share out of the desire to not put words in the mouths of people who have the lived experience that we don't. Instead, we have linked lots of supplemental reading below! We hope you enjoy!
