Reel Bad Arabs: How Hollywood Vilifies a People
Media Education Foundation
Media Education Foundation, 2007, 50 min., DVD.
Featuring acclaimed author Dr. Jack Shaheen, the film explores a long line of degrading images of Arabs along the way offering devastating insights into the origin of these stereotypic images, their development at key points in U.S. history, and why they matter so much today. Shaheen shows how the persistence of these images over time has served to naturalize prejudicial attitudes toward Arabs and Arab culture, in the process reinforcing a narrow view of individual Arabs and the effects of specific U.S. domestic and international policies on their lives.
