"If there is an exotic woman it's always a terrorist role"

- Persis Khambatta

About this Quote

This quote by Persis Khambatta speaks with the stereotype that has been perpetuated in the media of exotic females being portrayed as terrorists. This stereotype has actually been used to develop a sense of worry as well as mistrust of ladies that are viewed as different or international. It implies that ladies who are not of the exact same race or society as the bulk are more likely to be terrorists, which is an incorrect and also harmful presumption. This quote is a reminder that we need to not evaluate people based upon their appearance or history, which we need to aim to produce a more inclusive as well as approving culture. It is also a call to action for media outlets to be much more mindful of the functions they are casting as well as the messages they are sending. By creating much more diverse and precise representations of women, we can help to break down the barriers of prejudice and discrimination.
