Project NUR- University of Colorado at Boulder Chapter

Five Muslim American Democrats marked historic firsts in their home states. In Oklahoma, Delaware, Colorado, Wisconsin, and Florida, respectively, newly elected Mauree Turner, Madinah Wilson-Anton, Iman Jodeh, Samba Baldeh, and Christopher Benjamin became the first Muslim lawmakers in their state legislatures. Turner is also the first non-binary state legislator in U.S. history. Other Muslim officials were elected in state and local races in the 2020 general election, as well, such as Zohran Kwame Mamdani, the third Muslim to be elected to the NY State Assembly, and Nida Allam, the first Muslim woman to be elected to office in North Carolina, according to her campaign.

Project Nur is hosting Firmesk Rahim tonight, Monday the 9th at 7 PM in Hellems 211! Firmesk is coming from Iraq for a fellowship and is going to be in Colorado for a few days so we thought we would take that opportunity to host a talk with her. Here is a little bit about her: The current President of Iraq, Barhim Saleh, hand selected Firmesk to be his personal assistant so despite her relatively young age (31). She has loads of experience both as a Kurdish politician as well as a Baghdad insider serving for the President. She is highly fluent in English and is starting a new position teaching at the American University of Iraq in Sulaymaniyah. We hope to see some of you there!
