Islam Awareness Week: What Are We Hiding?
Feb. 11 | 7:00 - 9:00 PM | PC Ballroom West B
Islam has always been center stage in the media, in politics, and in our global discourse - these forces continue to overwrite the identity of millions of Muslims as dangerous, un-American, and "the other." This sentiment has led to prevalent discrimination, hate crimes, and anti-Muslim policies across the world. Through Islam Awareness Week, we want to get to know you, smile, laugh, and talk with you, and create a space where we can unite through conversation, food, and our narratives. Because, really, don't you want to know, what are we hiding?
