Join our esteemed panelists as they engage in questions such as:

• What do we learn about Islam, politics, and the world by starting our analysis in Africa?
• By challenging the assumed dominance of the Middle East in the development of Islam, what new understandings emerge about how religion travels, conflict, decolonization, or social justice?
• How has Islam shaped Africa, and how has Africa shaped Islam?

This panelist dicussion will be moderated by Tim Longman, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs; Professor of International Relations and Political Science at the Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University.
