In this episode, hosts Hana and Ahmed sit down with Hiba Adam - student, organiser, and advocate.
Hiba shares her familyโs story of fleeing Libya during the Arab Spring and rebuilding life in Australia as a refugee. From carrying the weight of multiple identities - Muslim, Black, refugee, woman - to navigating expectations placed upon her by different communities, Hiba reflects on the personal and political toll of displacement.
This conversation explores the mental health impact of forced migration, identity fragmentation, representation fatigue, and the complexities of belonging as a young Muslim in the West.
