It was such a treat to get to talk about Hearing Islam at Oberlin this week, catch up with @fchubbconfer.bsky.social, meet her lovely colleagues, and chat with stellar liberal arts students and musicians! All my favorite kinds of people.

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.
That means:

🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

A high landscape of rolling hills covered in brown vegetation, snowcapped peaks in the distance.
A brown dog looks down a hill into a forest, with a blue sky in the distance.
