The global Muslim community is often represented through a singular narrative, as a monolithic identity. As the world's fastest-growing religion, Islam’s 2 billion followers are assumed to share the same values, beliefs, practices and even physical traits. 

In our inaugural podcast episode of Curated Conversations, host Sheliza Jamal is joined by Tristan Mohamed, Gilary Massa, Shafik Kamani, and Laila Ackison to debunk that myth of the Muslim monolith, share their personal experiences, and discuss the harmful impacts of the Muslim tropes in the media.
