Muslims today assert their Islamic piety in a variety of ways within their French and Belgian identity, even as they challenge Islamophobia and call for a fundamental rethinking of what it means to be European. The lecture addresses these struggles as a central defining moment for the future of a postcolonial, post-Cold War Europe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Registration:<\/strong><br \/>\nThis event is free to attend.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/kent.us9.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=09061348c600e39a8d07ce65d&amp;id=7fb81d81dd&amp;e=30df235cb1\">Click here<\/a> to register online<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Please note that this event is first-come-first-served<\/p>\n<p>Find out more about the series online <a href=\"http:\/\/kent.us9.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=09061348c600e39a8d07ce65d&amp;id=9b431c140b&amp;e=30df235cb1\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first of a new Guest Lecture Series kicks off with: \u2018The Crisis of New Europe\u2019s Secularism: The \u201cChallenge\u201d of Islam in France and Belgium?\u2019 &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/2016\/10\/06\/bsis-interrogating-our-multiple-crises-guest-lecture-series\/\">Read&nbsp;more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":41052,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[6598,23266,124],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2655"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/41052"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2655"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2655\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2657,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2655\/revisions\/2657"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/brussels-news-events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
