With Stones in Our Hands: Writings on Muslims, Racism, and Empire

**Bringing together scholars and activists, *With Stones in Our Hands* confronts the rampant anti-Muslim racism and imperialism across the globe today** After September 11, 2001, the global War on Terror has made clear that Islam and Muslims are central to an imperial system of racism. Prior to 9/11, white supremacy had a violent relationship of dominance with Islam and Muslims. Racism against Muslims today borrows from centuries of white supremacy and is a powerful and effective tool to maintain the status quo. *With Stones in Our Hands* compiles writings by scholars and activists who are leading the struggle to understand and combat anti-Muslim racism. Through a bold call for a politics of the Muslim Left and the poetics of the Muslim International, this book offers a glimpse into the possibilities of social justice, decolonial struggle, and political solidarity. The essays in this anthology reflect a range of concerns such as the settler colonial occupation of Palestine, surveillance and policing, blackness and radical protest traditions, militarism and empire building, social movements, and political repression. *With Stones in Our Hands* offers new ideas to achieve decolonization and global solidarity.
