A new generation of Muslim American media puts women in focus

November 1, 2021

East London-born Rifat Malik was recently appointed as the editor in chief of a new American publication centering the work of Muslim women journalists. 

“Muslim women are often vilified, obsessed over, become the target of speculation or are infantilized in the media and sometimes within the Muslim community,” Malik told RNS. 

The Texas-based American Muslim Today hopes to change that narrative by placing women at the heart of the storytelling.
