Episode 37 - Zainab Johnson

Zainab chats with Sofia about growing up in Brooklyn as one of 13 siblings, her recent meeting and conversation with Dave Chapelle, why she was nervous before going on stage at I Heart Halal in 2019, and what’s different about performing for predominantly Muslim crowds. Tune in to hear all that plus a special announcement about our showcase event, the Mosquers Film Festival, on March 12, 2022!
