(AIS5) Workshop for Anti-Islamophobia Scholars and Community Organizers

This workshop is open to community organizers and academics working in the field of systemic Islamophobia and critical Muslim studies. This will be a collaborative space to together build a collective of folks who are working in this area to connect, share, and imagine possibilities for partnership and action. We especially encourage graduate students and junior scholars to attend. We recognize that many of us are working across institutional divides and neoliberal silos related to community and academy, language and regional areas, disciplines, and particular areas of focus, but that our work is webbed and dependent on one another. To this end, we will together explore the following question in this workshop: How can we collaborate effectively?
