Announced by the University of Pittsburgh: The UPenn Graduate School of Education's Hub for Equity, Anti-oppression, Research and Development (HEARD) invites you to join our community for an interactive panel to broaden our understanding of the ongoing impact of 9/11. Participants will learn more about US engagements in wars over the last two decades; the consequences and costs of these wars; and how and why we need to teach about war. Speakers will share research, pedagogical tools and curriculum resources that help us move beyond teaching about 9/11 to teaching beyond it. |

A Zoom discussion on the essays from "Black Muslim Portraiture in the Modern Atlantic", The Muslim World Journal - Special Issue These conversations focus on five Black art figures of Muslim heritage: (1) Ayuba Suleiman Diallo (2) Yarrow Mamout, (3) Joseph Cinqué (4) Omar Ibn Sayyid and (5) The Bashi-Bazouk. They offer various interpretations, but this is precisely the reason this conversation is so vital. Then there's the fact that these images are all of men and Black people, allowing us to question the male bias and racial assumptions in modern visual culture. |
