The discourse community I have chosen to share my topic with is Muslim Women across the globe regardless of whether they wear a veil or not. I believe that communicating the issues faced by the muslim minority in France to a larger audience that can identify and relate to that minority is of paramount importance. Because the muslim minority in France is such an insignificant part of the population, getting traction in France’s Senate is a proven obstacle. Brining their problems to light in front of a global audience that enjoy the same basic freedoms that they are so desperately fighting for should set the tone. My hopes are that targeting this audience is a step in conjuring enough global support and momentum to put pressure France’s Senate to overturn the ban on hijabs. The best multimodal genre to convey these issues in my opinion are a video. Videos are easy to share online and visually engaging.
