Today religion is showing its politically ambivalent nature: the war in Ukraine, the rise of aggressive nationalist ideologies in Asia and the West, and the persistence of sectarian conflicts across Africa and the Middle East often appear as religiously expressed conflicts.
The Middle East Studies Center at SRU is hosting its first event of the year: a presentation by award-winning photojournalist and Senior TED fellow Eman Mohammed titled, "Crisis in Gaza and the U.S.". Ms. Mohammed will discuss the devastating impacts of war and conflict in Gaza (and elsewhere) while highlighting the unbreakable thread that links struggles against oppression. Her work explores the shared aspiration for human dignity and equality that transcends borders and backgrounds.
