During the Spring Semester, Ibtisam Abujad (Ph.D. Candidate, English) hosted a virtual event in her class that explored how cultural activism in the form of music, poetry, filmmaking, and storytelling can produce local and global shifts that cure social ills and promote justice. This panel featured award-winning and influential filmmakers:

Queen Muhammad Ali: Director, Producer, & Visual Anthropologist

Hakeem Khaaliq: Directory, Producer, & Visual Anthropologist

Khaula Malik: Director, Producer, & Filmaker

Ibtisam and the panelists graciously agreed to let us share a recording of part of this conversation.
