We Invite You To:
an inclusive 3-day public forum promoting Inter-religious and Intra-
religious dialogue to explore the challenges of Extremism,
Intolerance, Scapegoating, and Islamophobia, and the promise of
Reason, Understanding, Compassion, and Cultural Harmony.

Join 50 Presenters and Facilitators as we explore:
1) The mutual dilemmas of religious ignorance, extremism,
intolerance, negative stereotypes, prejudice, demonization and
dehumanization, scapegoating, and fear of "the other," that lead to
toxic divisiveness, polarization, and social paranoia, including a
current focus on Islamophobia and the Muslim community,
and
2) The promise of personal engagement through dialogue in nurturing
a shared consciousness of peace - and in doing so promoting the
religious experience as a healing remedy rather than problem.

FORMAT:
An outstanding, diverse gathering of presenters for 3 Days of
keynotes, workshops, panels, dialogue groups, exhibits, social/
cultural events, multicultural community, and rich networking for
collaborative application beyond the conference.

"It does not require that we be the same to be appreciative of, at
peace with, and secure in our relationships with each other; only that
we be familiar enough with each others story to share the humanity and
trustworthiness that resides in each of us."

Location: Henry Ford Community College 5101 Evergreen Rd , Dearborn
MI
Schedule: Fri. June 11, 10:00 am -to- Sun. June 13, 2:30 pm
