It told the story of a mosque community that worshiped in the basement of an Anglican church. It was a bona fide hit, running for six seasons and playing on networks all over the world. Kyle Conway's textual analysis and in-depth research, including interviews from the show's creator, executive producers, writers, and CBC executives, reveals the many ways Muslims have and have not been integrated into North American television. Despite a desire to showcase the diversity of Muslims in Canada, the makers of Little Mosque had to erase visible signs of difference in order to reach a broad audience. This paradox of 'saleable diversity' challenges conventional ideas about the ways in which sitcoms integrate minorities into the mainstream."-- $c Provided by publisher. 630 00 $a Little mosque on the prairie. 630 06 $a Little mosque on the prairie. 650 0 $a Muslims on television. 650 0 $a Islam in mass media. 650 0 $a Cultural pluralism in mass media. 650 0 $a Multiculturalism in mass media. 650 0 $a Minorities on television. 650 0 $a Situation comedies (Television programs) $z Canada $x History and criticism. 650 6 $a Musulmans �a la t�el�evision. 650 6 $a Minorit�es �a la t�el�evision. 650 6 $a Islam dans les m�edias. 650 6 $a Diversit�e culturelle dans les m�edias. 650 6 $a Multiculturalisme dans les m�edias. 830 0 $a Cultural spaces. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019022550.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20171129010332.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20170701010105.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8ECCA3B05E2211E78DAED5EDDAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b HL6Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
