October 2014 Podcast: (Inter)National Social Justice Issues and the Academy
In this podcast we welcome Dr. Chezare A. Warren from Michigan State University and Dr. Loukia Sarroub from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln for a conversation about current events in the United States that have sparked national conversations concerning social relations, race, religion, and justice. We will be focusing on the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson Missouri and the demonstrations that have followed, as well as the rise of ISIL/ISIS/IS in the Middle East and the US reactions. In considering the cases of the African American and Muslim communities, we are interested in how to use social justice research to address issues of racism, and Islamophobia, and consequently work towards improving the educational and lived experiences of students from both communities. What lessons can we learn from both communities, as we consider how to use social justice research in relation to other marginalization communities?
