Dispelling Myth and Misconceptions

If you have enrolled in " Exploring Islam and Muslims" you will love the "Dispelling Myth and Misconception".  Although the course is about demystifying Muslim culture and addressing socioeconomic factors interacting with Islam. Distinguishing between cultural and religious practices has broad general implications on social issues such as ethnic, and language diversity. The course addresses assimilation, discrimination, multiculturalism, challenges of immigrants, and integration in society.

This course is applicable to all those who are living in a dominant culture and want to know what are the issues of assimilation and cultural pluralism for intergroup relations. Diversity is often seen as a source of strength, but at the same time, it can be a source of conflict due to inevitable challenges of pluralism: the ever-growing conflicts between religious, national, and ethnic groups and the growing oppression and injustice towards individuals by the dominant group.

The course will provide excellent training for educators, life coaches, social workers, human rights advocates, and interfaith activists who want to create a multicultural and pluralistic society. Students will learn about different types of pluralism, and the advantages, and disadvantages of pluralism.

Pluralism is a learned behavior and it needs to be cultivated in everyday life. It is a lifelong learning process that requires personal effort to create a pluralistic society. let's learn, grow and evolve as a human race.
