I’m so excited to participate in this show-and-tell conversation concerning media in Middle East history at Northwestern University in Qatar this weekend! It was hard to select only a few cassettes to bring along with me, but Shaykh Imam, Ahmad Adawiya, and Shaykh Antar made the cut for my carry on.
