Imam Makram El-Amin, a steadfast voice for justice, dignity, and spiritual leadership in the heart of Minneapolis. For over two decades, Imam El-Amin has served his community through faith and action, guiding one of the city’s most vibrant masjids, addressing food insecurity and housing through leadership of the nonprofit Al Maa’uun, and showing up in moments of crisis with unwavering support. A student of the late Imam W. Deen Mohammed, his bridge-building across faiths and continents has taken him from the streets of Minneapolis to global stages with Bishop Desmond Tutu, the Dalai Lama, and Pope John Paul II. In this episode, we talk about what it means to lead through uncertainty, how to respond when sacred spaces are under threat, and how faith can be a light in even the darkest times.
