LGBTQ Muslim orgs say no to censorship!
Just as weâve seen with the criminalization and political suppression of Palestine solidarity organizing, censorship often begins with targeting some groupsâbut quickly impacts all marginalized communities. Book bans didnât start with queer books, and they wonât stop there.
Join us in resisting Opt-Out under the guise of religious freedom! Denying access to LGBTQ affirming curriculum only endangers our youth and communities, leading to right-wing capture. đ đ
Join us this Friday at 12pm ET | 9am PT for âSelf-determined Muslimness: Queering our Practices and Ritualsâ led by Dr. Nidal Karim, part of our ongoing Ramadan practice series.
