National Day of Remembrance of the Québec City Mosque Attack and Action Against Islamophobia

January 29 commemorates the victims of the 2017 shooting at the Islamic Cultural Centre of Québec City and serves as the Day of Action Against Islamophobia. Take some time to look at works from authors from North America’s diverse Muslim communities. This list highlights Muslim writers' growing body of contemporary fiction and non-fiction titles discussing Islam. 

Thank you to the Islamic Society of Kingston for their recommendations.
