Queen Rania of Jordan has launched an official YouTube page in an effort to dispel stereotypes of the Arab and Muslim world.
Do all Arabs hate Americans? Can Arab women work? Are there any YouTubers in Jordan? The queen said questions like that are what she seeks to address. "In a world where it's so easy to connect to one another, we still remain very much disconnected. There's a whole world of wonder out there that we cannot appreciate with stereotypes, so it's important for all of us to join forces, come together, and try to bring down those misconceptions," she said in her YouTube posting.
"I want people to know the real Arab world -- to see it unedited, unscripted and unfiltered -- to see the personal side of my region -- to know the places and faces and rituals and culture that shape the part of the world I call home," she said in her first official YouTube clip.
