Reports of anti-Muslim hate in the United States are on the rise, reaching their highest rate of incidents in 30 years. This spike follows a global trend, as the war in Gaza has ignited passions and divided populations. With a record number of elections around the world this year, politicians have stoked anti-Muslim bias to win votes. This fireside chat, organized by Columbia’s School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) and cosponsored by Columbia Religious Life, examined the roots and long history of anti-Muslim hate, both in the United States and abroad. The conversation will look at the complexities and challenges for Muslims today and focus on policies to prevent violence and discrimination.
Ambassador Farah Pandith is an Adjunct Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations; and the Former Special Representative to Muslim Communities at the US Department of State.
