Although this conversation was recorded in 2015, these questions and the conversations around them have found renewed relevance at the end of 2016. How has the dialog surrounding Islamophobia changed in the last year? Tune in and find out. •••• The Straight Up Podcast is produced by Megan Donis, Sriyanka Ray, and Sachar Mathias; and is recorded on-location at Bedford Hall in Brooklyn, by Steve deSeve.
