Crossroads of Islam and Blackness

Sponsored by Muslim Students Association and African American Student Union

The Muslim Students Association is collaborating with the African American Student Union to bring you The Crossroads of Islam and Blackness! This event will explore the idea of being both Black and Muslim, as Imam Plemon Al-Amin speaks to us about figures such as Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali, highlighting their impact on both spheres of race and religion. Come join us for a thoughtful discussion on intersectionality and free refreshments!
