At first glance, it seems clear: hostility towards Jews. At second glance, it becomes complicated and controversial, as the current dispute over an appropriate definition of anti-Semitism shows. At the centre of this dispute is the distinction between illegitimate anti-Semitism and legitimate criticism of Israeli policy. The lecture takes this dispute as its starting point, develops a concept of anti-Semitism, presents this using historical material and, on this basis, distinguishes between anti-Semitism and \u2018criticism of Israel\u2019.    <\/p>\n\n<p>Where?

But what exactly distinguishes anti-Muslim racism from Islamophobia? What historical developments characterise today&#8217;s image? And which terms and images continue to have an impact in everyday life without being immediately recognised as discriminatory?   <\/p>\n\n<p>The AStA&#8217;s project series on anti-Semitism and anti-Muslim racism begins with a first interactive event with Mohammed Chahrour on the topic of \u201canti-Muslim racism\u201d. This event can serve as a starting point for you to better understand racism and discrimination against Arabs and Muslims. <\/p>\n\n<p>As a full-time counsellor for victims of right-wing and racist violence, Mohammed Chahrour regularly gives workshops on (anti-Muslim) racism in order to impart strategies and methods that are critical of racism not only academically but also realistically.<\/p>\n\n<p>This introductory event offers an interactive introduction to the topic. Together we will take a look at: <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Terms and definitions: Anti-Muslim racism vs. Islamophobia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Historical developments &amp; milestones<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Powerful narratives and buzzwords: Orientalism, terrorism, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anti-Arab vs. anti-Muslim stereotypes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Political debates &amp; legislation with a racist impact<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Media coverage of Muslims and \u2018migrants\u2019<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cultural appropriation &amp; cultural representation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>The <strong>aim of the event<\/strong> is to make anti-Muslim racism visible in its various forms &#8211; in public discourse, in political structures and in everyday life.
