"Unveiled" by Rohina Malik
JMCBI invites you to this exciting play and discussion!
"Racism, hate crimes, love, Islam, tea, culture, language, life, and hope interweave in this compelling one-woman show about Muslim women in a post-9/11 world."
Rohina Malik is a writer and artist. She was born and raised in London, England, and draws upon her Indo-Pakistani heritage for inspiration for her art. Rohina will perform excerpts from her play "Unveiled" which deals with her life as a Muslim woman in a society affected by sterotypes and racism. A discussion with the performer and the audience will follow.
