Academic freedom, equity, Islamophobia, and the commercialization of higher education offer challenges to faculty nationwide. In a telling incident, Black Muslim students of Hamline University complained of Islamophobic incidents on campus while also taking offense at the showing of a famous Persian painting of the Prophet Mohammed in a global art history class. Host Sahar Aziz discusses these issues with Rutgers Art History Professor Tamara Sears and University of Wisconsin-Madison Law School Professor Asifa Quraishi-Landes.
