The Progressive Conversations Series Presents INTERFAITH FORUM ON ISLAMOPHOBIA
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 11th - 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM At Culver-Palms United Methodist Church 4464 Sepulveda Blvd, Culver City 90230 With Imam Muhammad Faqih Reverend James Lawson Rabbi Haim Dov Beliak Moderated by Estee Chandler Free to the Public! Suggested Donation $10/$5 No One Turned Away The week after Chicago congressman Joe Walsh claimed, "There is a radical strain of Islam in this country, trying to kill Americans every week," there were two attacks in the Chicago suburbs, one at a mosque, the other at an Islamic school. In previous weeks, a mosque in Joplin, Missouri was burned to the ground, and Sikh worshippers in Wisconsin were murdured "for looking Muslim." In the wake of 9/11, Islamophobia-in both neoconservative and liberal forms-has been an important ideological pillar of the "war on terror." From cultural, theological, and political perspectives, our speakers will deconstruct the most persistent myths about Islams and Muslims. and examine the role Islamophobia plays in justifying war abroad and political repression at home. Off the 405 at Culver, south on Sepulveda.
