Yale Black Muslims (YBM)
The goal of the Yale Black Muslims (YBM) is to establish an affinity space that welcomes and celebrates the intersections between Black and Muslim identities. We hope to create a comfortable environment for Black Muslims at Yale in which we can engage in discussion about issues and topics that are pertinent to us. We also wish to further educate the Yale community by enlightening Black Muslims about their rich culture and history, while simultaneously exposing interested Yalies to the impact and prevalence of Black Muslims in society. In addition to facilitating social activities at Yale, we also plan to invite knowledgeable speakers to catalyze academic discourse and provide additional insights towards the experience of being Black and Muslim. We also hope to interact with other collegiate Muslim communities within New Haven and facilitate community service initiatives. As the group grows, we aim to broaden our impact on the Yale and New Haven community at large.
