Evelyn Alsultany, Associate Professor in the Department of American Studies and Ethnicity at USC and author of Arabs and Muslims in the Media: Race and Representation after 9/11 interviews Sue Obeidi, Director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council’s Hollywood Bureau about the Obeidi-Alsultany Test, criteria they co-authored to assess representations of Muslims in Hollywood. 
 
The Muslims as Seen on TV podcast is produced and distributed by the Consortium for Gender, Sexuality, Race and Popular Culture, a faculty-led initiative spearheaded by Professor Karen Tongson at the University of Southern California’s Dornsife College that brings together researchers exploring shifts in gender, race, and sexuality in popular culture, while also translating that research for the public square. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the Consortium is functioning as a start-up podcast network within the Department of Gender & Sexuality Studies, and working with both faculty and students to produce informative audio stories in multiple genres. This podcast is produced by audio engineer Allyson M. Holley.
