She Should Know
(1/3) Uncomfortable Truths: Racism in Muslim Spaces
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Amina Knight for an honest and necessary conversation about racism within the Muslim community. We explore how racial bias and colorism show up in our masājid, families, institutions, and online spaces — often quietly, sometimes painfully. Dr. Knight helps us unpack why these patterns persist, how they harm individuals and fracture the idea of ummah, and what accountability, healing, and allyship can look like moving forward. This episode is an invitation to reflect, listen deeply, and begin doing the work our faith already calls us to.
