The Network Against Islamophobia (NAI)

by JVP Artist Council Member Micah Bazant in collaboration with Linda Sarsour.
he Network Against Islamophobia (NAI), a project of Jewish Voice for Peace, was created to serve as a resource to, and work with, JVP chapters and other groups interested in organizing against Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism and to be a partner to the broader, Muslim-led movement against Islamophobia. NAI facilitates online resource-sharing of FAQs, public letters, press statements, articles, and other materials.

We know that in order to do our work as effectively as possible, our community/political education is essential. Therefore, we are so pleased to be able to share our workshop curricula and modules, Challenging Islamophobia and Racism. We have worked the past few years developing these materials and resources so that we could all be more effective, principled, creative, thoughtful partners in this work.
Our curricula, modules, and resources include:

STANDING WITH MUSLIMS AGAINST ISLAMOPHOBIA AND RACISM
Join the Network Against Islamophobia (NAI) in putting these posters and stickers in your homes, in your neighbourhood stores, in our communities, and around your schools.

In this political moment, it is critical that we are as visible as we can be in standing with the Muslim community and opposing Islamophobia and racism.

Thank you to JVP Artist Council and NYC Chapter member Sarah Sills for the beautiful design of our signs.

STOP PROFILING MUSLIMS
One of the many manifestations of Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism is that Muslims and those perceived to be Muslim are being stopped at airport security, having their rights routinely violated, and being removed from flights.

This is completely unacceptable. It is intimidating, it is discriminatory, and it is a violation of basic human rights. We need to say so.

Working with our partners at Jews Say No!, we, the Network Against Islamophobia decided to make these t-shirts. The message is simple: Stop profiling Muslims. And we hope that all of us who are not profiled can wear them when we pass through security, when we walk through the airport, when we board and sit next to people on our flights (or trains or buses or at rest stops on the highway).

Jewish Voice for Peace is distributing these shirts at cost as part of our ongoing organizing against Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism.

It’s critical that we say, with total clarity, that we stand against Islamophobia and profiling of any kind.
