Description
Negin Farsad's memoir in essays explores growing up Iranian-American in a post-9/11 world and the power of comedy to combat racism. A candid and uproarious account, it delves into the complexities of identity and the ways in which white culture defines our concepts of 'black', 'white' and 'Muslim'.
Through her personal experiences and witty observations, Farsad tackles questions about hyphenated identities, combating racism and stereotyping, and the everyday challenges that come with being an outsider. With humor and incisive intellect, she shares her thoughts on topics ranging from cultural icons to everyday life.
