Ramadan Blues

University students have undeniably shifted the social discourse about what's happening in Gaza. From campus encampments to renaming buildings and disrupting commencement ceremonies, the class of 2024 has made its mark. Amid the competing media narratives eager to misrepresent the student movement, one truth is clear: young Jewish people are leading the fight for Palestine. Muslim Girl Founder Amani sits down with Liv Kunins-Berkowitz, the national media coordinator of Jewish Voice for Peace, for an interfaith dialogue about the moral demand -- and cost -- of solidarity.

We're baaaack! This is Muslim Girl Code, previously known as Uncovered: the Muslim Girl podcast. In our first Ramadan episode, we bring together legendary Palestinian filmmakers Farah Nabusli and Darin Sallam for the first time ever in a candid conversation about life and art after that fateful day on Oct. 7. From Hollywood censorship to storytelling through grief, they open up to our founder Amani about the lessons they learned, challenges they’ve overcome and why things will never be the same.

For ganja, that is. Co-hosts Amna and Amirah spoke with the founder of Halal Hemp about all things marijuana. While breaking down the differences between CBD and weed, diving into their ancestral roots, colonization, community taboos and more, this episode was a metaphorical hotbox conversation.

Halima Aden is taking back her narrative. The featured speaker of Muslim Girl Iftar at Soho House during Ramadan in New York City, she has re-emerged into the fashion world in true Halima style: with the May cover story of @VogueArabia, a newfound confidence, and the hijab on her own terms. In her interview with Muslim Girl founder @amani, the first hijabi Vogue cover model opens up about sisterhood, imposter syndrome and the full circle moment behind her first cover shoot back. Read her feature on MuslimGirl.com.
