The Manufactured Arab: The Story of How Hollywood's False Storytelling Shaped Public Acceptance of Human Suffering (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781966837480)

In The Manufactured Arab, Dr. Abraham Khoureis, Ph.D., a Hollywood talent agent, a showbiz insider, and the Apostle of Compassionate Leadership, examines how for nearly a century, elements within Hollywood and major news media repeatedly portrayed Arabs and Muslims in distorted and dehumanizing ways.

Drawing on firsthand industry insights, he shows how these portrayals were not accidental, but carefully repeated, shaping Arab and Muslim characters as threats rather than as people. Over time, this manufactured image influenced public perception, conditioned fear, and made the suffering of Palestinians and other Arab people easier to ignore or justify.

The Manufactured Arab is a direct and honest reckoning with the power of storytelling, how it can be used to protect cruel occupation, sway public opinion, and control narratives. It calls for truth, responsibility in the narratives that shape how the world understands humanity.
