Slate Race and Identity Represent | 13 Reasons Why and Who’s Afraid of Aymann Ismail?
Aisha Harris talks to Slate video producer Aymann Ismail about his new video series, Who’s Afraid of Aymann Ismail?, which seeks to uncover new and different perspectives on Muslim American identity today. Also, producer Veralyn Williams and our social media guru Marissa Martinelli weigh the pros and cons of Netflix's controversial 13 Reasons Why, including its depictions of suicide and sexual assault.
