“We are here. We are queer. We are Muslim. We are both, relentlessly without contradiction and without apology.”
Eman is a brilliant academic, a strong and empowered woman, and active in her queer Muslim community. She speaks on panels, stars in a queer play, and is an all-around badass. That is, except when she goes home to Missouri to visit her traditional Muslim mother, whom she has yet to come out to. When she starts dating a cisgender man, it seems as though her worlds can finally coexist, but can she live up to the traditional expectations?
Coming Around reminds us that coming out is anything but straightforward.
