Muslim Women in the Media

The photo above is part of an interesting infographic about how Muslim women are portrayed in the media. The infographic argues that the media portrays Muslim women as "voiceless, submissive, passive, and oppressed victims instead of the powerful and creative leaders they are."  The International Museum of Muslim Women (IMOW) storified a tweet chat about Muslim women and the media which you can find here.
