In a world filled with injustice, how do we empower our children to understand, advocate for, and support those who are oppressed? In this episode of Little Stories, Big Lessons, we sit down with Guzelya Marisova, a passionate Uyghur author, activist, and children's storyteller, to explore her powerful book Story of the Stolen Homes. Together, we discuss how Islamic-minded storytelling can shape our children’s understanding of their identity, how to have tough conversations about the atrocities faced by Palestinians and Uyghurs, and the vital role of Muslim writers, artists, and poets in fostering activism and social justice in the next generation.
