This is the English translation of an originally published interview in Arabic in Al-Awan website.
In this interview, I discuss the visual representations of Arab Americans in Hollywood, Egyptian, and Arab American filmmaking. This interview was conducted by Ahmed Tharwat, host of Belahdan, a show with an accent to those without one.
بدأت في عقد التسعينات اهتم بقضية الصراع الحضاري والثقافي بين العالمين الغربي والشرقي، من جهة، وبين العالم الغربي والإسلام من الجهة الأخرى. ولعل سبب هذه الاهتمامات هو اطلاعي على نظرية صمويل هنتنغتون المعنونة بـ”صراع الحضارات”، والتي من خلالها حاول التنظير لنظام عالم جديد يلي الحرب الباردة، وهو ذلك العالم الملئ بعناصر الإحتراب، و خاصة بين “الغرب المسيحي” و “الشرق المسلم”. وهذا يعني أن الصراع الحضاري سيكون مبنيا على أسس دينية ذات طابع جيوسياسي. أثناء انشغالي بتلك الاهتمامات كنت في المرحلة الثانوية، وتملكني شعور نقدي مكنني من النظر الى عالمنا بشكل مختلف.
This interview summarizes my PhD dissertation project.
This interview briefly captures my journey from Yemen to the United States in pursuit of knowledge. My journey started in Yemen during the 1990s when I, as a high school student, developed the intellectual curiosity to critique Samuel Huntington’s “Clash of Civilizations” thesis, which propagated tensions between Americans and Muslims in a post-Cold War world order, imagined through religiously homogeneous civilizations.
