ICBC Masjid – Cedar Park – Texas – United States
Come join CAIR-Austin team at ICBC for a documentary and conversation led by civil rights advocates
CAIR-Texas is proud to offer “In Their Footsteps: An American Muslim Civil Rights Journey” documentary and discussion for Black History Month. The screening will be led by the civil rights icon, Br. Mustafaa Carrol who is featured in the documentary and a local historian, activist, and advocate, Br. Darwin Hamilton.
Come learn about the history of slavery, lynching, segregation, and present-day racial injustice. You will hear deep personal and emotional reflections from American Muslims, including African-Americans, who lived through segregation and Jim Crow laws, and for whom the journey brought back memories from their own lives.
After the screening, our speakers will discuss the film to gain a more profound personal experience of the civil rights movement. The screening and discussion will take an hour.
