How ableism and hairism are connected, and what it’s like experiencing--and resisting--both

  • サマリー

  • Luby Ismail came up in the same Egypt as Wafaya; longing for straight, silky hair, and taking hot irons and chemical relaxers to it to try and meet the beauty “ideal.” As an adult, Luby is an intercultural educator and public speaker, and realized one day that she couldn’t be authentic in her teaching if she wasn’t authentic in herself. Her journey includes living with multiple sclerosis, and in this episode, she educates us on ways even people with the best intentions can fail to see the fullness of lives that differ from their own.

     

    From founding Connecting Cultures, which fights Islamophobia, to her husband’s documentary filmmaking, and her son’s environmental activism, Luby’s whole family is committed to using education to build bridges, making the "foreign," "familiar," and working for the betterment of humanity.
