AIC’s Shabana Mir Speaks at UIC

Dr. Shabana Mir, Assoc. Professor of Anthropology at American Islamic College, spoke on March 12, 2019 at University of Illinois at Chicago on “Islamophobia and Intersectionality on Campus: Action Points.” The lecture was the inaugural endowed Triple C Lecture Series at the College of Education at UIC during Spring 2019. Triple C is a new initiative aimed at creating cultural competencies in teachers and educators who are working in increasingly diverse, and often fraught, contexts. This year’s theme is organized around countering anti-Muslim racism in schools and communities. Dr. Mir also conducted a Meet and Greet with PhD students at their Arab American Cultural Center.
