| Summary: | Join the four protagonists on an exciting journey as they dive into the most current discussions about Islam and feminism, typically reserved for academia and specialized feminists. Zahra proudly wears the hijab and challenges the widespread assumption that Islam and feminism are mutually exclusive. Hamza, on the other hand, faces various toxic stereotypes about masculinity and the roles he is expected to perform. Mariama, as a Black Muslim woman, grapples with how her world is shaped by colonialism and discrimination. And Amari finds their own path through the seemingly rigid categories of sexuality and gender. This interactive graphic novel invites readers to engage with important conversations on Islam, gender and sexuality and shows how young people can make a difference in society. |
