Join us for a screening of ‘The Muslims are coming’ followed by a Q&A with director Negin Farsad on Monday, April 13th, 6pm, Potomac Lounge, University Union.
The Muslims are Coming! is a docu-comedy about that follows a band of Muslim-American comedians as they visit big cities, small towns, rural villages, and everything in between to combat Islamophobia! These Muzzies not only perform standup at each tour stop but create ridiculous interventions in unsuspecting town squares, like the ol’ classic, “Ask a Muslim Booth.” Through the film, comedy icons like Jon Stewart, David Cross, Janeane Garofalo, Colin Quinn, Lewis Black, Aasif Mandvi and broadcast heavy weights like Rachel Maddow Russell Simmons, Soledad O’Brien, Ali Velshi and The Young Turk’s Cenk Uygur comment on the power of comedy and the political scope of bigotry.
