Thursday, April 13, 2-3pm, this on-line event requires advance registration
Dr. Sahar Alsahlani is an Iraqi American interfaith peace activist with a background in television and radio broadcast media and entertainment. Sahar grew up in Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh during the 1970s, alongside a diverse community of children who all lived alongside neighbors of various faith traditions, race, cultures, and their neighbor, the real Mr. Rogers.
This unique experience shaped her pluralistic value, but also included the classic teachings of Mr. Rogers, while being raised within the backdrop of the “Real Neighborhood of Mr. Rogers.” Sahar’s field work has taken her to various parts of the country with regards to various rapid response initiatives in solidarity with other US faith leaders.
Along with serving on the Executive Council of Religions for Peace, USA, Sahar is a Trustee of the Parliament of World Religions, USA; and on the Board of the Council on American-Islamic Relations-NY. She has a doctoral degree in theology.
