Washington, DC
Georgetown University
Copley Formal Lounge, Copley Hall
Asra Nomani worked as a news reporter for the Wall Street Journal for 15 years. Then her friend Daniel Pearl was murdered, and she discovered a new mission: to fight for a tolerant Islam in the face of a rising tide of extremism. THE MOSQUE IN MORGANTOWN follows Asra as she brings that campaign home to West Virginia, no longer an objective journalist but rather a “writer-activist.”
Join us at Georgetown University for a film preview followed by a conversation on advocacy journalism featuring Asra Nomani and Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank. Director Brittany Huckabee will join the discussion, and Barbara Feinman Todd, Associate Dean of Journalism at Georgetown University, will moderate. Light refreshments provided.
RSVP required.
