The Ramadan Committee (co-led by the Islamophobia Working Group and the Muslim Students Association) has worked hard to transform our planned in-person Ramadan iftars into completely remote events and resources! Our website (bit.ly/ramadan-umich) contains information, activities, and programming (bit.ly/ramadan-program)-- including “Zoom Into Ramadan” gatherings every Monday and Thursday from 7-7:30pm (sign up for the Ramadan listserv to get reminders and instructions for how to join these gatherings). As with our in-person iftars, the programming is open to all, both Muslims and non-Muslims.
We hope that our iftars and allyship initiatives will establish an enduring tradition of community and inclusion. We are looking forward to a meaningful and engaging virtual Ramadan in 2020 and to next year's Ramadan, when we plan to once again break bread together in person. Many thanks in advance for your help in getting the word out about our online events!
