Ep 1 Why do you ask?

Synopsis

There’s a world of difference between asking and telling. The first shows curiosity and tolerance; the latter indicates ignorance and  indifference.  In this brief first episode, Jehan tries to figure out the source from which misinformed Americans get their views about Arabs. She gets closer to answering the question when she finds a US government instructional document, ‘Arab Cultural Awareness: 58 Factsheets,’ intended to train soldiers and intelligence staff who are shipped to the Arab World.
