The Role of Islam in a Divided America (OLLI)
Course number :
CV170
« back to classes page
This course will present the truth about Islam from an
Islamic perspective and explore the deep reasons behind
the fear of Islam by many Westerners. The course will
hopefully stimulate a productive and respectful dialogue
about the role of the three Abrahamic religions in a time
of political upheaval and conflict. Content for the course
is based on the book I Am the Other — Debating the
Role of Islam in a Divided America co-authored by Imam
Azhar Subedar, a well-known Islamic scholar, and Robert
Gary. Note: Students are not required to purchase the
book to attend this class.
