Access Hollywood interviews Mike and Angela Jaafar, cast members of the new show All-American Muslim. The couple has four children and live in Dearborn, Michigan. Mike is a police officer. They say they agreed to become involved in the series to show that Muslims are not how they are stereotypically viewed by Americans. They feel Muslims are misunderstood because there is fear of the unknown. They live in a diverse neighborhood and have friends of all nationalities and religions. They talk about how they explained to their children why they decided to be on the show.
I have to say this is a refreshing change from the drama on Russian Dolls. This couple seems very down to earth and open about their life in Michigan. It will be interesting to compare the two ethnic series and see how they are similar and different. If you watch the video below, let me know what you think.
