An American professor, Erika Lopez Prater, has approached the court for relief after Hamline University in Minnesota dismissed her for using Prophet Muhammad’s images during her art class. SaharaReporters had reported how Hamline University, a private liberal arts school in St. Paul, Minnesota, U.S. declined to renew the contract of a professor, Erika López Prater, who showed her students mediaeval paintings depicting the Muslim Prophet Muhammad.
Attorneys for an adjunct art professor said she is suing Hamline University, which dismissed her after a Muslim student objected to depictions of the Prophet Muhammad in a global art course.
