Screening: Beyond Burkas and Bomber: Anti-Muslim Sentiment in America
WHEN: April 11, 5:00p CST (7:00p WST)
WHERE: Live streaming online
DESCRIPTION: With the production of this empowering film, the award-winning MediaLab team has set out to open a discussion about a largely marginalized portion of American society, explore how Islam is defined in America, and to counter negative impressions and stereotypes. While empowerment can be difficult to implement effectively, it can begin with the simple act of creating a personal connection to breakdown harmful stereotypes. During the event, follow us on Twitter with the hashtag #beyondbombers and lend your voice to the conversation. Watch from anywhere – we’ll be streaming live at plu.edu/soac.
