Welcome to Muslims in Hollywood!
This website aims to discuss the ongoing problem that is the incorrect portrayal of Muslim and Middle Eastern culture in American cinema. Throughout the years, there have been a many number of films that have referenced theses racist stereotypes for either a part of the plot or for a comedic effect. In both cases, the image of Muslims is the same: men, women and children of Arab appearance who are influenced by their religion to commit acts of violence against the United States and its citizens. Movies such as American Sniper, Team America: World Police and The Dictator are just a few examples that embody these misrepresentations. In the tabs above, we take a closer look at these films and their aspects that involve the common stereotype and how it effects the movies as a whole.
