Unprecedented Surge in Islamophobia: A Conversation with Professor Abdul Jabbar

With 36 years of teaching English and interdisciplinary studies at City College San Francisco, Professor Abdul Jabbar joins host Amina Saqib to discuss the unprecedented surge in #islamophobia witnessed in recent weeks.

It has been nearly two months since the escalation of the Israel-Palestine conflict, causing global repercussions, particularly in the United States.

Anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim sentiments, along with Islamophobia, have escalated to unprecedented levels. University campuses, once known for championing free speech, are now becoming hotspots where students and faculty face persecution.

It is disheartening to witness a stark contrast where the advocacy for free speech is now met with brutal censorship.
