The Islamophobia Question
November marks Islamophobia Awareness Month, and the SEED Anti-Racist Education Network is delighted to invite you to a special in-person discussion on Islamophobia with Professor Salman Sayyid from the University of Leeds.
About Professor Salman Sayyid:
S. Sayyid is a professor of decolonial thought and rhetoric at the University of Leeds. He reads world history and writes political theory. His major publications include A Fundamental Fear (which, despite being banned by the Malaysian government, is now in its third English edition), Recalling the Caliphate, and he is co-editor (with AbdoolKarim Vakil) of the volume Thinking Through Islamophobia. He is also the founding editor of the journal ReOrient and curator of the Critical Muslim Studies project [criticalmuslimstudies.co.uk], which, in addition to the journal, includes the Radio ReOrient podcast and the Reorientations blog. Sayyid’s work has been translated into a dozen languages.
We look forward to welcoming you to what promises to be an engaging and thought-provoking discussion.
