Arab American Union Members Council and Break the Silence Mural Project
present:
A SPECIAL COMEDY EVENT WITH MAYSOON
7:30 pm
Friday, May 20th, 2006
Opening with Music and Refreshments
Meet Maysoon Zayid, who makes hay out of being what some think is a living, breathing oxymoron: an Arab American comedian. So much for the stereotype of the silent, pliant Muslim woman.
"By introducing Maysoon to the Bay Area community, we are not only breaking a stereotype but also introducing humor to a very tense political situation," stated the organizers.
