Growing Up in a Muslim Country: Brooklyn, U.S.A.

4:30 PM ET

Sponsored by:: Charles P. Scott Center for Spiritual and Religious Life

Much of the political discourse around Muslims in America continues to frame Muslims as the Other—new, strange, foreign, and incompatible with life in America. Yet, the lived experiences of Muslims in Brooklyn—like many Muslim communities throughout the United States—tell different stories, of long histories of diverse peoples who have been and continue to be integral to American life. For well over a century, Muslims have lived, worked, and prayed in Brooklyn, making it a major center of Muslim life for New York City and the nation.

Gather: Progressive Christians and Friends

7:00 PM ET

Sponsored by:: Charles P. Scott Center for Spiritual and Religious Life and Gather

Gather is a community of progressive Christians and friends – non-Christian and Christian alike – grounded in tradition but hoping to break cycles of oppression and injustice by promoting the values of compassion, justice, mercy, tolerance, and radical inclusivity as Jesus taught. Our goal is to explore multiple expressions of faith in community by holding student-led worship services; providing opportunities for personal reflection, service, and activism; and facilitating discussions of modern Christian life, social issues, and more.
