We Are Mortada Gzar

In episode 200, the girls are joined by Iraqi novelist, filmmaker, and visual artist Mortada Gzar. They talk about his upbringing in Iraq, his experience as a gay man in Iraq, his immigration to Seattle, and so much more. And, of course they discuss his new memoir <a href="https://www.thirdplacebooks.com/book/9781542016582">I'm in Seattle, Where Are You?</a> which is a story about love and his journey to the US. It's a beautiful read and we recommend!
