Second installment in the series “Also my Flevoland” with stories from the province of Muslims and Muslim women. Today we discuss the influence of the media on the image that exists about Muslim Flevolanders, how this image is perceived, what it can lead to and also how it can be done differently:
“There is more thought and talk about it, but this awareness has not really led to change in practice, in the publications and images that we see.”
“For the regional media, it should be the case that they approach people from the neighborhood. Go out there, start the conversation and use a different set of addresses for a change.”
Guest: Ewoud Butter independent researcher, consultant, playwright and founder of republiekallochtonië.nl & Arzu from the municipality of Dronten, teacher at the MBO college Hilversum & Saffana from Almere student of legal services.
