[anderwater]

"We had been looking for success in record deals and stadium shows, but I guess we already had it, because we had each other. And because, We Are Lady Parts."

Imani got suspended. She threw eggs at her teacher because he took slavery off the curriculum. \\ You are a badass punk and so is your daughter.

i love in we are lady parts s2 episode 5 saira is trying to sing about issues affecting the Muslim community but the story itself, the show itself, censors her and the censorship is portrayed as physical force from beyond the narrative but also inherent to it. when marginalised people are given platforms, the usually white people who own those platforms will not let marginalised people use them to openly speak about issues that aren't palatable or marketable. these talented Muslim women are inherently political, but what they make cannot be seen to be in an obvious way. on a totally unrelated note, I love that season 2 of we are lady parts heavily features the music of Palestinian artist, Rasha Nahas who also appeared in the finale and you should go listen to her music ❤️🇵🇸

i love love love how the show does not portray religion as a restricting force over the lady parts even when portraying narratives of inner conflict. Amina is looking for a husband because she doesn’t want to be lonely, not because she has been told to fulfill a submissive wife role. Ayesha doesn’t get kicked out of a mosque for being gay, she gets kicked out for cussing at an old lady. Saira and Ayesha meet at the mosque like so many friendships do, lady parts starts with a prayer. Noor’s problem is bullying and peer pressure, not the way she practices Islam. Amina is meek because she has anxiety, not because she’s oppressed. Ayesha chooses not to come out not because they would disown her but because it would be too emotionally difficult. Momtaz chooses to wear the niqab and she’s loud and funny and sarcastic. there is no dichotomy in the show of normal religious expression (re: aligns with culturally western moral values) vs freaky weirdo religious fanatic. even in the marriage meeting at the beginning of the show the other people are flawed because they’re judgemental and rude, not because they go on hajj and wear jilbaab. because this show is about real people.
