Arabs and Muslim students at Cal have been the subject of a string of racist & Islamophobic incidents at UCB this semester, culminating in a violent assault on three Palestinian students two weeks ago.

And following the election of Barack Obama, racism against African-Americans and other minorities has increased sharply nationwide.

Come to a teach-in on racism and Islamophobia next Tuesday, December 2nd to hear more about these attacks, the link to U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and how we can organize to fight back.

Organized by Berkeley Stop the War,
Students for Justice in Palestine,
& the Muslim Students Association
