Muslim Students' Association speaker choice sparks controversy at U of A Muslim scholars chosen to speak during awareness week promote hatred, University of Alberta professor says
A Muslim professor from the University of Alberta is concerned some Islamic scholars invited by a student association to speak on campus this week promote what he describes as extremist views and homophobia.
Four scholars have been invited to campus for Muslim Awareness Week, an annual event organized by the Muslim Students' Association.
Some of these speakers' ideologies are cause for concern, U of A professor Junaid Jehangir said.
