Born in London, England, to immigrant Pakistani parents and moving to America during her middle school years, Rabiya Khan has been exploring the complexities of living in anti-Muslim societies. In this course, you will learn about one woman's journey as she navigates post 9/11 American and the rise of Islamophobia, defined in the Oxford dictionary as an expression of fear, hatred, or intolerance towards Muslims and Islam. Prerequisite: Don't use the internet as your sole research tool on Islam!
