Anti-Racism Muslim Collaborative Gathering

  • John Humphrey Centre For Peace and Human Rights 4635 199 St NW #111 Edmonton, AB, T6M 0V1 Canada (map)

Salam Al 3laykum Brothers and Sisters,

We invite you to a Saturday afternoon to discuss, collaborate, and enjoy a delicious Somali lunch with us on September 17, 2022 from 2:30pm to 5:30pm. The Anti-Racism Muslim Collaborative (AMC), along with John Humphrey Centre (JHC), are releasing a report on the community engagement sessions held in 2021 around anti-Black racism in Muslim spaces. We will share visual representations of the process, findings and action items resulting from this journey. This event is meant to share what we heard, but also to get feedback and engage for the purpose of moving forward with the community. We hope this event opens a path of collaboration with diverse community members and organizations to make our Muslim spaces safe and accessible for everyone.

Place: The Green Room will be graciously hosting us in their beautiful new space.

Lunch will be provided by JHC through Guuto Mothers.

Childcare will also be provided by community volunteers with limited capacity for ages 2+ (request childcare in your registration by emailing info@jhcentre.org)

Accessibility: There are stairs at the entry of the Green Room’s space. Fortunately, there is a wheelchair lift that can also accommodate a stroller. (Capacity is 2 people with 1 wheelchair at a time).

We look forward to seeing you there.

Please RSVP By September 10th, 2022
