In this week's special hour-long episode of Rise of Charm City, we are sharing audio from an event we organized at Baltimore's Impact Hub on June 1st, which explored experiences from different Muslim communities here in Baltimore City.
During the event, we spoke with a panel of Muslim youth who shared memories growing up in communities in and out of Baltimore and how their experiences in their individual communities shaped their perspectives in the city.
In this segment, you hear from our moderator, Sadiq Ali, who led the conversations with Aisha Aulakh, Muhammad Hudhud, Khalil Ismail, Naimah Sharif and Tariq Touré. As our panelists share their memories and thoughts, you'll hear what has led to segregation in the Baltimore City Muslim community during a time when Islamophobia impacts Muslims at large.
And tune in at 11:30 am next Friday, June 24, to hear our episode on Muslim history in Baltimore — which incorporates tape and ideas from this live event.
