Why Support CAIR Pennsylvania?
- CAIR PA serves American-Muslim community needs at the local level — a resource to Islamic and interfaith centers – CAIR PA presents an American-Muslim voice to media, policy makers, and civic groups – CAIR PA defends against negative images, stereotypes and bigotry – CAIR PA builds bridges with civil rights organizations, and ethnic-based communities on the common goal of promoting justice and mutual understanding
I’m personally looking forward to hearing Michael Hamilton Morgan speak. Bio: “Award-winning former diplomat Michael Hamilton Morgan is the author of the new book Lost History: The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Scientists, Thinkers and Artists. Morgan is also founder and President of New Foundations for Peace, a nonprofit created to teach leadership skills to young people worldwide.
While some in the media and American politics are exploiting fear-based depictions of Muslim culture, Michael Hamilton Morgan’s Lost History shows how much of modern science-based, humanitarian and tolerant society comes from Muslim sources. Rather than a clash of civilizations, Morgan finds a single global digital civilization, with many of its roots in historic Baghdad, Cairo, Cordoba and other places.”
Oh, and Azhar Usman, will provide the entertainment!
