THURSDAY: Screening of Three Chaplains documentary in Ladd! (Emma Mazlish)

Join Ahmed and the Rachel Lord Center for Religious and Spiritual Life for a screening of the Three Chaplains documentary! The screening will be held at 6:30pm in Ladd 114.

The documentary focuses on Muslim chaplains in the U.S. military who support and defend the religious rights of all service members. But their leadership sparks accusations of disloyalty and even disapproval from within their own communities. Resisting calls to blend in, the chaplains fight to maintain a balanced devotion to Islam, the Constitution, and the military. They fully embrace their Muslim identities while in uniform and show what a diverse U.S. Armed Forces really looks like.
