We can combat Islamophobia through empathy-building, increasing our religious literacy, and addressing our unconscious biases toward Muslim people. In this discussion, participants will enhance their awareness of Islamophobia’s history and how it shows up today, unpack evidence-based insights and case studies, and gain actionable strategies to interrupt it at Columbia and beyond.
This session is a part of the Community Citizenship Initiative (CCI) and is designed for first semester students. Students attending this workshop will receive credit for CCI and will have their requirement considered complete.
