Atta YaqubGUEST
There's some stories that, you know, me as an individual, as a Muslim person, i can't i can't relate to sometimes when it comes to things like terrorist stuff you you question it because you need to look at the angle that they're coming across is it continually showing muslims in a bad way as it kind of put a positive spin on it there was a there was a really good uh script and i really wanted to do it but i didn't capitalize it was called talibans right so it was guys like you and i right who are just bams man i mean we're just dish talking like that no i we're muslims but i mean no day not like it was great right and a guy had the vision to do it and i thought this is a gora this is a white guy writing something to do with our community where's our writers do you know i mean and yes i'm not i'm not a writer jay right but you know, more and more, yes, there's people, there's more actors, there's more writers developing some stuff like that.
