Arab-American Psycho

This week’s episode is a little different than my typical solo episodes because well, things get a little heavy. I share my journey as a hijabi and talk about how religion is weaponized as a form of controlling women as well as my frustration with claiming ownership of a religion and religious gatekeeping (super fun, I know). Enjoy psychos!

This week's episode of AAP is shorter than usual, but hopefully it will entice you to subscribe and keep listening for MORE, MORE, MORE! Anyway, it's a solo dolo episode where it may seem as though I suffer from audible hallucinations but I promise I'm totally fine. I also talk about how I literally almost died, which I'm hoping makes good click bate so let me know if I'm doing it right. Enjoy psychos!
