I just finished an interview with a student working on her thesis about representation of Muslim women in film and television and I felt compelled to share my brief reflections on #YouPeople currently streaming on Netflix. I tend to watch as a filmmaker so my first impression was that the story was lacking depth and cohesion, and it felt like a lot of pop culture references and stereotypical joke bits put together instead of a real story. Then, the superficial nature of the characters, specifically Amira and her family, left me with irritation. If you’re going to make a movie with a Black Muslim woman in it, be authentic in crafting who she is and how she moves through life. Give her nuance and development from beginning to end.

I can totally use the ox-boy thing to like talk about the injustices in the middle east, the stuff gay people have to face and all that but I know someones gonna take it the wrong way and find it offensive
turn an accident into a not accident, make it look like I meant this all along like J.J. Abrams, my secondary enemy along with the big bad Michael Bay

I was excited to see #YouPeople after the hub told me how much he enjoyed it. Eddie Murphy is in it so I was hesitant cuz he curses a lot in his movies. The hub promised that You People had no cursing in it. Since he curses, I checked #iMDB & not only is there cursing, it's rated as SEVERE!!! Won't be watching it You People... Bummed but not really surprised... https://www.instagram.com/p/CoEcQGzLi28chfCfr-wvg57yQRxgH0dUZCy16o0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
