“Ask a Muslim Anything,” a talk by Robert Azzi, provides an opportunity to engage in respectful conversation with a Muslim neighbor who, speaking from personal experience, will answer questions about identity, fear, conflict, interfaith relations, international affairs and Islamophobia. Azzi talks openly about what it's like to be Muslim in America, how he came to convert to Islam, the religion of Islam and its history (especially in America), and the Middle East, terrorism, and associated political and social issues.
