 Sign up to join our Week of Action from March 25-28th!
As-Salaam-u-alaikum (May peace be with you),
Welcome to #MuslimAnd Week of action, you can still sign up to receive digital resources and join us as we take action. #MuslimAnd Week of Action is a campaign of the Muslim Youth Leadership Council at Advocates for Youth. The #MuslimAnd campaign first launched as a way to expand common perceptions of Muslims in the aftermath of the Trump Administration's infamous Muslim ban. Instead of saying “I am Muslim, but…”, young Muslims are claiming an intersectional space and saying that we are #MuslimAnd Queer, #MuslimAnd Feminist, #MuslimAnd 5th Generation American, #MuslimAnd so much more. Last year, we collectively called for an end to the Nazaar of state surveillance and harmful policing with a reinvestment in community care. This year, as immigrant communities are under attack, we will declare that we are #MuslimAndHere. Here to stay, here and queer, here and showing up in all of our diversity and brilliance!
Join us and spend the special last days of Ramadan in community and action.
Sign up to:
- Learn about how to host a Halaqa on your campus or community
- Join us calling for action on immigration to protect our Black and Brown immigrant communities from stigmatization, deportation, and state violence

The #MuslimAnd Week of Action starts today & runs until March 28th. We also encourage you to forward this email to young Muslims you know to get as many to participate as possible. Sign up today!
With peace,
