For this panel at the 2021 Luce-Hartford Conference in Christian-Muslim Relations, Silk Road Rising staff and volunteers presented videoclips and discussed ways their programs use art to host interfaith conversations and promote learning. The chosen examples illustrated how the pandemic both hindered and enriched those efforts. Clips from Mosque Alert and Christmas Mubarak were shown.
Featuring:
Jamil Khoury, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Artistic Director of Silk Road Rising
Corey Pond, director, dramaturg, casting director, producer
Fouad Temour, playwright
Carol Schersten LaHurd, Distinguished Affiliate Professor at the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, and educational outreach consultant for A Center of Christian-Muslim Engagement for Peace and Justice.
