Join the World Affairs Council and 90.5 WESA for a panel discussion on the beliefs and practices of Islam, which is practiced by 1.6 billion people around the world and is often misunderstood by many non-Muslims. Hear from local Muslim community leaders as they share their unique perspectives and experiences about what it means to be Muslim, as well as challenges facing Muslims in America.

This community event is free and open to the public. Join us for this dialogue as we strive to increase understanding and address misconceptions around Islam.
