Amir Sulaiman, Mikaal’s older brother, is a world renowned poet, screenwriter, theologian, and abolitionist. Amir discusses his brief and bitter crisis involving an Emmy nomination for his screenwriting work on Hulu’s Ramy show. He also breaks down his unique point of view on reality and how we might be living in a screenplay. Amir's short poem you'll hear at the end of the episode is from a short poetry film collaboration he and I worked on. You can see it at https://www.blackensomedia.com/episode-2. You can also find Amir on Instagram @amirsulaiman
