In Episode 96 of the Raising Mums podcast, I interview Rukayat Yakub, a Montessori teacher and award-winning author. Rukayat has travelled the world studying Arabic and traditional Islamic sciences. In addition to pursuing a doctorate in Islamic leadership, Rukayat coaches leaders and mothers on navigating anti-Blackness – the inability to see and value Black humanity in their communities and homes.
In this episode Sister Rukayat shares:
- Practical advice on navigating anti-Blackness in our communities
- How the teachings in Islam help us address social issues
- Racism in books and boycotting authors
- Conversations about antiblackness with our children
- How to bring Black Islamic History into your homeschool curriculum
- The Prophetic model of compassion, justice, and belonging
- How the Prophet ﷺ dealt with racism and antiblackness
