DISHING DEMOCRACY: Arab Social Reform Via Satellite TV - DVD
It makes personal life the topic of public discussion. It serves as an alternative forum for dialogue and debate. And it does not shy away from sensitive issues. This Wide Angle report gives an inside look at the popular Arab all-female talk show Kalam Nawaem. The program provides a detailed portrait of the hosts - four highly articulate Arab women of different ages, nationalities, and viewpoints—as they wield the power of transnational satellite TV to boldly and effectively push social reform in primetime. Homosexuality, domestic violence, women voting, and social and political equality between the sexes are all fair game on Kalam Nawaem—and viewers are loving it.
