Episode Info:

There’s an important conversation about sexual harassment and assault happening across the United States. Things are no different for American Muslims. This fall, at least two major Muslim figures have been accused of abuse of power against women — the response has shown how difficult it can be for women to speak openly about abuse, and that many communities have a long way to go when it comes to supporting victims and survivors. So, we talk to BuzzFeed’s Hannah Allam about her reporting on Nouman Ali Khan and the women who are calling him out. Then, we have a frank conversation with Elamin Abdelmahmoud about how men can take on a bigger share of the work of fighting back against abuse.
