My Name is Khan

Happy 4th of July! We're celebrating American Independence Day with a discussion of everything that's wrong with our country, as depicted in the Bollywood film My Name Is Khan. The movie tells the story of a Muslim man and his family trying to navigate life in post-9/11 America. It shines a light on the intolerance, violence, and hateful stereotyping that still characterizes life in the states for many, even decades later. My Name Is Khan stars Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, and was directed by Karan Johar. Like what you're hearing? Remember to follow us on Instagram @2whitegirlstalkbollywood. Wanna hear more?
