Jenan Younis: Jenanistan (Work in Progress)

Jenanistan (Work in Progress)
BBC New Voices winner, Amused Moose,  99 comedy club award finalist and host  of the BBC sounds show “JENAN & FRIENDS COMEDY HOUR”, Jenan brings you a work-in-progress show of what it means to be an ethnic minority within a minority in woke-ish modern Britain.

Growing up Middle Eastern in middle class middle England makes it pretty tricky being your ethnic self. But now Jenan finds herself in a world where you can’t say ethnic any more (oh no it’s “person of colour” now) and Stacey Dooley knows more about her motherland than she does, not to mention the fact that every British fridge has a tub of hummus (or is it humous?) Jenan decides to outwardly start wearing her ethnic self on her sleeve; but it’s not without difficulty.
