Mark Rizk Farag’s Reviews > If an Egyptian Cannot Speak English > Status Update

So far the most positive thing I have to say about the book is that it mentions Tinariwen, who are amazing.

Otherwise it leaves much to be desired.

'Later when we were alone on the street, she asked me if An didn't want Muslims in Riche because his family was Coptic. Adorable. They don't hate Muslims, they hate the poor.'

Ahh Egyptians, we find so many ways to hate one another.....

I like the commentary on classism and islamophobia but why no commentary on discrimination against Copts. Does it cause Egyptian Muslims spiritual pain to admit how they treat us?
