On Sept. 19, Brueggeman Center is hosting the Islamophobia and Racism in this Election Year presentation.
The presentation will be held from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. in the Duff Banquet Center in Cintas.
There will be a reception and a group dialogue following the presentation.
The presentation will be hosted by Nihad Awad, executive director
and co-founder of the Council on American-Islamic Relations and Charles Hughes, member of the executive Committee, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
“We are concerned about the presence of racism and Islamophobia in our society and how it is being stirred up during this election
cycle,” Kristen Barker of the Peace and Nonviolence Program of the Intercommunity Justice and Peace Center in Cincinnati said.
“We want people to be able to identify racism and Islamophobia and become empowered to stand up to and counteract these forces going forward,” Barker said.
All are welcome to attend.
