American Muslim
Just Another Slave
Starting on 15 April, 07 a series of documentaries will be airing on Public Television that probably concerns all of us who have the ability to watch it. I will quote from their website describing the series :
This series of 11 documentaries, hosted by journalist Robert MacNeil, explores the challenges confronting the world post 9/11 - including the war on terrorism; the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan; the experience of American troops; the struggle for balance within the Islamic world and Muslim life in America; and perspectives on America's role in the world. Additional films will air as specials following the premiere.
An extensive media and outreach campaign in more than 25 cities accompanies the series - creating a national dialogue that includes screenings and discussions with U.S. military personnel, leading policy experts and leaders of the Muslim American community; an integrated Web presence; and educational initiatives.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is generally seen as a very liberal media outlet. I hope that, inshallah, these documentaries will show us in a clearer, more positive light here in America. Here is a link to the site I was referring to :
