Tune in to The Graduates this Tuesday, February 2nd @9AM for an interview with Mohamad Jarada from the Department of Anthropology. Mohamad studies how marginalized communities protect and assert themselves through civil, political, social, and economic rights. His dissertation research focuses on the ways in which Muslim Americans living in North Carolina have sought security by asserting various rights in the wake of the murder of three Muslims in Chapel Hill in 2015. In the interview, he talks about his time interviewing various members of the community and his observations of how mosques and other spaces have adapted since the tragedy.
The Graduates, featuring graduate student research at Cal, is broadcast every other Tuesday on KALX 90.7 FM. Past episodes are available to listen and download free on iTunes or online. This episode of The Graduates is hosted by Andrew Saintsing, a PhD candidate in the Department of Integrative Biology.
