Happy to learn that. X in fact i think i actually showed you some of the slides. This report makes it scathingly crystalclear what the relationship is between education and incarceration. Right . So, therefore, again, it is beyond our charge to say how we are going to do that, but i keep using the word ammunition which is not a good use not a good word to use but the information is certainly in this report that makes it clear that if you dont to go to prison or who goes to prison are the people that have the least access to those kinds of opportunities and education is a crucial one. That social policy assessing Community Need is certainly flamed in terms that trained in terms of declining incarceration rates, but our historical chapter makes it clear that it was not accidental that the communities most affected by incarceration were those that already suffered quite severe, as we say, racial segregation economic decline, and lack of opportunity and also serious educational lack of opp
An approach that should be imams not about islam. It is not about muslims. Its not a muslim problem. Its a boston problem, use problem, a world problem. Islam is not the issue or the problem. Its not the violence. Islam though can be the resource that helps us counter the violence. And so that framework helped a lot. That framework was not only based on our feelings as Community Members by do my own research with youth. We talked over 500 somali youth across three states and candidate. One of the things we found was youth that tells they were marginalized were more likely to be endorsed by fund. This was we cannot try to solve our problems paraphrasing here by using the same thinking that get us into diverse. And we cannot hate ourselves out of this. We cannot blame each other out of this. We can relate to each other, and this is by building relationships and inclusiveness. That is the approach were taking that will allow us to build a strong community. Thank you. In developing the fra

Cultivate the alienation, and that festers. They themselves arecriminals, gangsters, thugs on the farthest fringes of the faith they claim to represent. Yet they prey on disaffected young people without jobs or even a sense of belonging of where they were born. And they exploit social media to bolster their ranks and make fear go viral.
