Sun Room, Memorial Union

Opening remarks will be provided by ACLU of Iowa Legal Director Rita Bettis, and Corey Saylor, head of the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR) Department to Monitor and Combat Islamophobia. He is a national expert on countering Islamophobia and co-authored CAIR’s Islamophobia report, Confronting Fear. Then join us for a discussion of the constitutional and legal rights of Muslims. Students and others on campus are invited to share their own concerns, ask questions and help raise awareness about resources available on and off-campus during this uncertain post-election period. Clark Wolf, Iowa State professor in philosophy and political science and director of the Bioethics Program, will moderate the discussion.
