We begin part 2 of our discussion on the intersection of Blackness and Religion with Donna Auston, an anthropologist, writer and activist whose body of work focuses on race, ethnicity, gender, religion, media representation, and Islam in America. Some of her written work includes book chapters on the historical contributions of African American Muslims in the arts, culture, and social justice movements, and the intersection between Islamophobia and Black Lives Matter. Her work has been covered by national news outlets, including NBC News, and The Huffington Post, and she was named one of the top 100 Muslim Social Justice leaders by MPower Change in 2016.
