Kronemer lays out the history of Muslim representation in Hollywood media, and charts how negative perceptions of off-screen Muslims are influenced by on-screen Muslim characters. He covers changes in both Hollywood and public opinion, ignited by a rejection of the “othering” of Muslims and a growing willingness to change the narratives about them.
