This is a comprehensive workshop series designed to empower communities across Canada and broaden their understanding of the interconnected issues surrounding Islamophobia, Cyberhate, and racial marginalization within Muslim communities. These workshops will not only delve into the critical issue of Islamophobia and its impact on Black and Indigenous Muslims, queer Muslims, and Muslims with disabilities but will also examine the troubling intersection of cyberhate and online extremism. Participants will gain valuable insights into strategies for effectively countering these online threats and promoting a safer digital space for all. Join us in taking a proactive stance against racism and discrimination.
