Tikkun (https://www.tikkun.org/category/uncategorized/page/20/)
Sheikh Hamza Yusuf, co-founder of Zaytuna College in Berkeley, calls on religious people of all faiths to face head-on the “negative externalities of religion” — those toxic side effects of religion that we don’t like to deal with. In an age of nuclear proliferation, he explains, religious extremists of all faiths — not to mention the fundamentalist secularism of people like Sam Harris, who calls for a pre-emptive strike on Muslims — are capable of destroying massive numbers of people.

Videos from Tikkun’s 25th Anniversary Celebration in Washington DC
[brclear]
Organized by the Network of Spiritual Progressives Chapter of Greater Washington DC
[brclear]
On the same evening that Tikkun held it’s 25th Anniversary in Berkeley, the Washington DC chapter of the NSP organized a sister celebration for Tikkun at Busyboys and Poets. James Lee and Imam Johari Abdul Malik presented Congressman Keith Ellison with the NSP Visionary Award to the diverse crowd that had packed into the space – unfortunately, people even had to be turned away once capacity was reached. Much thanks to James Lee and the Washington DC NSP! [brclear]
Congressman Keith Ellison

The video for this impassioned speech by Rep. Ellison is a little dark for the first half, but it’s well worth it to hear Keith’s acceptance speech.
