Yasmina Bennani is a busy woman. Like many journalists who’ve had to find their feet in the last decade of a turbulent media environment, myself included, she’s a producer, presenter, editor, researcher, Facebook Live presenting-multitasker. She does all this at AJ+ Francais.
Yasmina covers issues that would have branded her a snowflake only a few years ago. Racism, sexism, Islamophobia, Fatphobia, cultural appropriation, - issues that now are taking up more and more space on the daily news agenda. But While many would argue it’s not enough, is it possible that the fringe is taking over the centre? Or are our media echo chambers just intensifying?
Show notes:
Watch Yasmina date a facist here and explore food culture here.
