salam and hello, welcome to my first ever video essay! In this video, I analyse the experiences of Black Muslim women through an intersectional framework (race, gender and religion). I speak about the erasure of Black Muslim women, the scrutiny and scapegoating, the all-consuming media tropes, institutionalised racism, refugees and many more.
