| Bismillah and salam, I have no idea if these resources are from an islamic perspective but here is the email anyhow. For those searching for resources to combat hate and racism, please read this important message below. I highly recommend these films and John Sinno's work. Feel free to contact me, as well, if you have any questions. Cheers - Andrea Andrea Holley Human Rights Watch International Film Festival 350 Fifth Avenue, 34th floor New York, NY 10118-3299 USA tel. 212-216-1839 mailto:holleya@hrw.org http://www.hrw.org/iff As an Arab-American distributor of feature films and documentaries from and about the Arab world, ARAB FILM DISTRIBUTION has assembled several documentary film packages that we feel provide a comprehensive look at the region's history, religions, cultures and conflicts as well as an in depth look at the relationships between the Arab world and the West. As our government reacts to the recent attacks, we feel that it is important that these films be made available to educational institutions in the US and Canada. It is also our hope that these packages will help initiate dialogue, understanding and perspective on a region and a people often misunderstood and misrepresented by mainstream Western media.
