In light of the COVID-19 Pandemic, MALA, like many other organizations, has been forced to reimagine our programming for virtual audiences. Part of this process has involved findng creative and unique ways to continue to collect and share the stories of Muslim Americans. During the months past, MALA has launched a series of webinars and virtual community discussions that have brought in a number of storytellers, ranging from professional Muslim athletes, congressional representatives, corporate innovators, and inspiring artists. These stories have been archived on MALA's Youtube Channel, and can be viewed for free at any time.
Additionally, MALA has begun working with StoryCorps to coordinate virtual oral history interviews to be archived in the National Library of Congress. If you would like to sign up to have your story recorded, send us an email at stories@MALAnational.org!
During these unprecedented times, MALA is more committed than ever to finding innovative and creative ways to share and amplify the voices of Muslim Americans. We invite you to join us in this effort, and to help us empower a new generation of storytellers. When we share our stories, we share our communities.
