YIP 2017 - Islamophobia
Channel: MySPNN
Date: 2017-08-28

The Youth Intern Program is a summer internship for youth in Saint Paul to create a documentary that addresses a community issue. This summer, one of our youth production groups partnered with the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) to produce a short documentary on Islamophobia. The youth interviewed an Imam at Al-Ihsan Islamic Center, two experts at CAIR, and a radio personality at KMOJ. The documentary teaches people about Islam then goes on to talk about diversity within the religion and what we can do to counter islamophobia.
