In celebration of Islamic Heritage Month in Toronto, this event features a conversation with Faseeg Manie, author of "Echoes of Freedom: The Story of Imam Gassan Solomon". The discussion will explore parallels between the struggles of South African Muslims during apartheid and the growing challenges of Islamophobia in Canada.
This virtual initiative aims to create a space for meaningful intergenerational and intercontinental dialogue, historical reflection, and future-oriented activism across both contexts.
Date & Time:
- October 18th, 10:30am-12:00pm Canada Eastern Time
- October 18th, 4:30pm-6:00pm South African Time
