After 2024, what’s next for Muslim voters?
In the months leading up to the 2024 presidential election, American Muslim voters in swing states received unprecedented attention from mainstream media and policymakers. With concerns about the U.S. role in Gaza at the forefront, American Muslims significantly increased their civic engagement—mobilizing politically, forming coalitions, and shifting their support in ways that had the potential to reshape the electoral landscape.
In this episode of Deep Dives with ISPU, Imam Mika’il Stewart Saadiq (Imam, Muslim Center of Detroit), Linda Sarsour (Executive Director, Mpower Change), Dr. Yousseff Chouhoud (ISPU Scholar & Associate Professor, Christopher Newport University), and Salman Khan (PhD Candidate, Harvard University & Co-Founder, Muslim Campus Life) explore key questions: What lessons can be drawn from both coalition-building and the fragmentation of the Muslim vote? How can Muslims and other minority communities prepare for an incoming Trump administration? And can the student protest movement help mobilize a new generation of Muslim voters?
