We must approach anti-Muslim bias not only as religious tolerance or security rights issues but also as a racial justice issue that requires a systems change approach. MuslimARC offers a 10-hour workshop series composed of five modules from MuslimARC’s Critical Anti-Islamophobia track, a workshop series that empowers participants to recognize the systemic roots of anti-Muslim discrimination and their effects on popular culture, education, civil discourse, and government policy. Through presentations and interactive activities, participants will identify and connect examples of Islamophobia in global and domestic contexts.
