International Museum of Muslim Cultures along with our many community partners are serving as catalysts to bring a “beloved community” to our city inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King and Imam Warith Deen Mohammad.
Our unique initiative is based on respect for human dignity and transformative social justice work. We are dedicated to identifying and developing a thriving, sustainable, and continuously improving community model with the goal of positively impacting quality of life for all including affordable housing, safe neighborhoods, better schools, transformative justice, healthcare accessibility, clean water and air, fair wages, and cultural appreciation. This work started with community surveying and canvassing and is now in the phase of model ideation.
This project is generously supported by the Kellogg Foundation.
