Because equality is a cornerstone of human rights protection, discrimination in all its forms is a violation of human rights.

Through the Fighting Discrimination Program, Human Rights First seeks to combat discrimination by reversing the tide of antisemitic, anti-immigrant, and anti-Muslim violence and reducing other bias crime in North America, Europe, and the Russian Federation.

The film follows the personal story of Alshaibi's life in post-9/11 United States and concentrates on sensitive issues pertaining to race and identity.

Alshaibi himself was the victim of a hate crime in 2011 so the film therein tackles the subject of racism and oppression towards Arab Americans in today's society.
