In his groundbreaking book, American Islamophobia: Understanding The Rise And Roots of Fear, Legal Scholar/Critical Race Theorist/Author & Activist, Khaled Beydoun states that what is termed Islamophobia today is actually embedded into the of systems and structures of the United States; it is carried out through conduits such as immigration policy, foreign policy, and media. We talk with Khaled about those forces (seen and unseen) that have contributed to, and reinforced anti-Muslim bias and Islamophobia in the U.S. This book is a definite must read!
In the second half, Tariq & Ibrahim talk about President Trump's decision to send the National Guard to help guard the border, his comments that women in the 'caravan' of people heading towards the border "are being raped at levels that nobody has seen before"; the neo-conning of the Trump administration in the appointment of John Bolton & Trump's plan to place tariff's on Chinese steel and aluminum.
