Why she tweeted:

The Alice in Arabia movement that unfolded on social media, and the resulting cancellation of the show, encouraged Kaye M., who wished to be identified only by her first name, to start a hashtag that would make others aware of harmful stereotypes and assumptions about Muslims in general.

Kaye told BuzzFeed that as a YA writer she had seen several recent books that used Muslim stereotypes to add "exotic flair and drama."

"I wanted non-Muslim writers to be aware of the diverse voices of Islam, so as to not fall back on said stereotypes and isolate their audience, or hold the belief of Islam being a homogenous religion based on only one voice (typically perceived as Pakistani or Arab)," said Kaye.

"For Muslims, I wanted to draw people together and allow them to share their experiences, and how those experiences countered racism and stereotypes."
