🌙 Books for Arab American Heritage Month 🌙
🌙 Good morning, bookish bats, and Eid Mubarak to those who are celebrating. Eid al-Fitr ("the feast of breaking the fast") marks the end of Ramadan, an Islamic holy month of fasting and sacrifice. April is also Arab American Heritage month, which celebrates the 3.7 million Arab Americans across the country. This is an opportunity to combat Anti-Arab bigotry by challenging stereotypes and prejudices.
✨ One of the best ways to do so is to read books ABOUT Arab Americans. To help, here are a few books for Arab American Heritage Month you can read, discuss, or add to your ever-growing TBR!
[ List under the cut. ]
✨ Growing up, I didn't have books that represented my experiences as an Arab or Muslim American. My friends didn't have stories to read that could help them understand my perspective. With that in mind, I added children's books on the last slide, for the moms out there searching for diverse books--books that allow us to empathize and understand different perspectives and experiences.

What are some Arabic names you consider beautiful? I.e. for men, women, and gender neutral/unisex names if that’s a thing too (sorry, I’m very unfamiliar with Arabic naming conventions)
Would also love to hear from your Arabic-speaking followers if they wanna chime in too!
oohhhh!!
for male names, i love ahmed, zakariya, hassan, zayd, hythem, and hamza.
for female names, i love yasmin, samirah, dalia, fajr, maha, and hadeel.
for unisex names, i love misk, salam, manar, rayan, ward, qamar, and nour.
some names are interchangable with gender, for example, "rayan" (ryan) is typically a boys name but recently some girls have been named that, so it became gender neutral, etc etc.
ty for asking!
