Dear Sana, I look forward to seeing your Ninjabi Sue cartoons each week. I think you have brilliantly and courageously combined humor with reality in a way that makes the reader more sensitive to the Muslim population in our country. Congratulations. - Judy C.
Please add your thoughts and comments to the cartoons. See what other people are saying and help to create more dialogue.
Who is Ninjabi?
Ninjabi comes from the combination of the terms “ninja” and “hijabi.” A hijabi is a Muslim girl that covers her hair. The term ninjabi is meant to be a fun way to refer to hijabis in the Muslim culture. The ninjabi in this editorial cartoon is a fusion of this and a Texan identity. She reflects the voice of many Muslims who have experienced discrimination and struggle with defining their identites post-9/11.
Currently the cartoon appears every Tuesday in the Daily Texan.
