Prior to 9/11 white supremacy had a violent relationship of dominance with Islam and Muslims. Racism against Muslims today borrows from centuries of white supremacy and is a powerful and effective tool to maintain the status quo. With Stones in Our Hands compiles writings by scholars and activists who are leading the struggle to understand and combat anti-Muslim racism. Through a bold call for a politics of the Muslim Left and the poetics of the Muslim International this book offers a glimpse into the possibilities of social justice decolonial struggle and political solidarity. The essays in this anthology reflect a range of concerns such as the settler colonial occupation of Palestine surveillance and policing blackness and radical protest traditions militarism and empire building social movements and political repression. With Stones in Our Hands offers new ideas to achieve decolonization and global solidarity.
