That’s the question Matt and Laura explore this week after the Sundance Film Festival apologized for airing the documentary film “Jihad Rehab,” a film created by a white woman who documents the experiences of four former Guantanamo Bay inmates at a Saudi rehabilitation facility for extremists. Muslim filmmakers criticized the film for its portrayal of Muslim men through the lens of a white American woman.
