Starz’ American Gods<\/i>\u00a0airs their third episode on Sunday, which\u00a0features a love story between gay<\/a> Muslim immigrant\u00a0Salim (Omid Abtahi) and\u00a0a mystical Jinn (Mousa Kraish). This story, part of the show’s recurring “Somewhere in America” segment which highlights a different immigrant story each episode, shows that the story of two gay<\/a> Muslim men<\/a>\u00a0is undoubtedly part of the\u00a0portrait of America. American Gods<\/em>, based on the novel of the same name, follows ex-con Shadow who is hired to be the bodyguard of the mysterious Mr. Wednesday. He comes to find that magic is real and Wednesday is on a quest to unite the Old Gods to reclaim their legacies and stop the advancement of the New Gods like Technology and Media.\u00a0American Gods: Sunday, 9pm on Starz.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
