SUMMARY:3rd Interfaith Leadership Forum:Building Interfaith Partnerships Beyond Racism and Religious Nationalism
DESCRIPTION:Rumi Forum\, Interfaith Council of Metropolitan Washington\, and Washington Theological Consortium presented the 3rd Interfaith Leadership Forum: “Building Interfaith Partnerships Beyond Racism and Religious Nationalism” on February 24\, 2022. \nEvent Video \n\n  \nAbout the Event: \nReligious nationalism is on the rise worldwide. In the U.S.\, it has primarily taken the form of White Christian Nationalism: the affiliation of being White and Christian with belonging and mattering in this country. This program explored the nature of global nationalism and its specific manifestation in the U.S. First\, we heard from Dr. Mark Juergensmeyer\, who is an expert who has been studying this trend for over thirty years. His keynote remarks were followed by a panel of diverse faith leaders who shared their views on building interfaith solidarity to resist the White Supremacist Christian ideology threatening our nation. This program was a forum for people of faith to learn\, become activated\, and feel equipped to respond together effectively. \n  \nProgram Outline: \nOpening Remarks\nRev. David Lindsey\, Executive Director\, Interfaith Council of Metropolitan Washington (IFC) \n  \nKeynote\n“The Capitol Insurrection and the Global Rise of Religious Nationalism”\nDr. Mark Juergensmeyer\, Founding Director of the Orfalea Center of Global and International Studies at the University of California Santa Barbara \n  \nPanel Presentations\nModerated by Rev. David Lindsey\, IFC \n“The Interfaith Imperative”\nRabbi Jack Moline – President\, Interfaith Alliance \n“Doctrine of Discovery\, Manifest Destiny and Christian Nationalism: Nothing New.”\nCharles Watson Jr. – Director of Education\, Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Liberty \n“The Pro-Democracy Faith Movement”\nMaggie Siddiqi – Senior Director\, Religion and Faith\, Center for American Progress \n“Religious Liberty and the Shortfall of Advocacy”\nSimran Singh – Vice Chairman\, IRF (International Religious Freedom) Secretariat \n  \nRumi Forum presents this event as a collaborating partner of the Interfaith Council of Metropolitan Washington (IFCMW) during the 3rd Annual World Interfaith Harmony Week in the DMV. We are glad that this session of our monthly Scriptural Reasoning program coincides with the annual worldwide observance during the month of February 2022. \nThe Forum would like to thank you to our sponsor DC Mayor’s Office of Religious Affairs.
