In a time of great political chaos and cultural division, podcast host Ikhlas Saleem has created a platform for discussing identity.
On the podcast Identity Politics, Saleem and her co-host Makkah Ali speak about the experience of being young, Muslim, black women. Recent episodes have shared #MeToo stories of Muslim women and girls and the representation of Muslim women in the beauty industry.
