Bridging Islam and Turtle Island: Parallel Struggles with Mona Haydar
Manage episode 366382062 series 3336197
In this episode Lyla June and Mona Haydar discuss the similarities between Turtle Island and the various cultures of Islam. Their discussion covers treating animals with honor, the importance of Creator, and the characterization of "savages," as an imperial framing used to justify the extraction of their homelands' resources. Their conversation also reviews the ways in which European forces have appropriated their culture's global contributions-- America’s democracy for instance was deeply influenced by the Haudenosaunee Indigenous Confederacy; European sciences were heavily influenced by pre-inquisition Islamic universities; and Arabian horses were co-opted and retitled as European horses. Join us for this fascinating conversation!
