OUR COLLECTIVE

For decades, Hollywood and the media have created extreme and often dangerous stereotypes about people from the MENA region and Arab world. Therefore, we choose to highlight stories and work with creators or brands who are actively breaking these stereotypes by diversifying the range and perception of Middle Eastern and North African people. Our goal is to be a bridge between cultures by honoring the complexities, betweenness, and humanity of people from the MENA regions or diaspora.

 

OUR FOCUS

Cultural Experiences

We create cultural experiences that connect and inspire the creative MENA community. We also celebrate our global community via our curated newsletters and social media platforms. Sign up for our newsletter or follow us on IG or TikTok.

 

Storytelling

We’re storytellers by trade and we know that some of the most impactful stories are those in TV, film, and digital media. We work to help shape those narratives. Our projects enable opportunities for MENA creatives to diversify our culture in entertainment and the media.
