Scratching the Surface - Performative Anti-Racism Work
In today’s episode, we will discuss performative anti-racist work in the Muslim community. We know racism runs rampant in our Muslim community. Due to the lasting impact of colonialism, racism is deeply entrenched in our communities, sometimes the practices are covert. This is a needed topic. It leads us to ask many critical questions.
Are we starting to scratch the surface? What actions can we take to build solidarity and bridges with the Black Muslim community? How are we responding to the anti-racism work? Is the mosque taking a proactive approach to addressing racism? Tune in to listen to our discussion and what actions can we take to address this relevant topic.
