Irshad Manji: What is Diversity Anyway?

IFC's Conversations for Open Minds

Sep 13 2021 • 45 mins

Irshad Manji is the founder of Moral Courage College, which teaches people how to engage on polarizing issues without shaming or “cancelling” each other. A professor of leadership at New York University for many years, Irshad now lectures with Oxford University’s Initiative for Global Ethics and Human Rights.

Her books are bestsellers in some countries and are banned in others. No wonder Oprah has given Irshad the Chutzpah Award for boldness. Irshad’s latest book, Don’t Label Me, reimagines diversity to include diversity of viewpoint. Chris Rock labels it “genius.” Not everyone agrees.
