Description
Guests Nida Allam and Lela Ali are two trailblazing Muslim women in politics. As Durham County Commissioner, Allam is the first Muslim woman elected to office in North Carolina, and she recently announced her bid for Congress (no big deal). Ali is Policy and Program Director at Muslim Women For, nurturing vibrant Muslim communities through grassroots organizing. In Part II, we discuss how their activism is influenced by their faith, the burden of representing the Muslim community, and what their message is for young Muslims who also want to step into politics.
