For the @ConversationUS, I discuss the normalization of Afghan suffering in US media & the harm it causes, especially when shown casually & repeatedly.
This hypervisibility creates a value system wherein certain lives are less worthy of dignity & respect

CPJ confirmed the deaths of 4 more Palestinian journalists today. A total of 57 journalists & media workers have been killed in 7 weeks. The 1st month of the Israel-Gaza war was the deadliest for journalists since CPJ began documenting fatalities in 1992. ow.ly/VEYI50QbeZ6

My new piece with @LAReviewofBooks about the @hulu reality TV show, Secrets & Sisterhood. In it, I discuss the challenges of a TV show being the first of its kind and what it means to see Afghan Americans on the small screen.
I hope you'll read and share this piece.
“Afghan Americans are aching for fair representation. So, when a show about Afghans gets picked up, we can’t help but expect the program to offer an 'authentic' perspective.” Azeta Hatef (@azetahatef) reviews the reality show “Secrets and Sisterhood.” lareviewofbooks.org/article/…

Children account for 2 out of every 5 civilian deaths in Gaza, surpassing the total number killed across all the world’s conflict zones in any year since 2019, said Save the Children. Families are mourning what feels like the loss of an entire generation. wapo.st/3QHrtXK
