The New Faces of Terror - ISIL and Boko Haram

Common Ground Grayslake Examines New Terror Organizations

The terror is stark and the violence is horrifying. But are ISIL and Boko manifestations of inbred Islamic violence or something else? In this controversial presentation, Jim Kenney, Executive Director of Common Ground, will argue that each of the new terror fronts is rather a form of neo-nationalism than of Islam gone wrong. We’ll examine each of the new “caliphates” with a critical eye and put each in its dysfunctional place.

Common Ground Grayslake is hosted by Wildwood Presbyterian Church, 18630 W. Old Gages Lake Road, Grayslake. This lecture is held from 7:00-9:00 p.m. on Friday, November 13. Admission is $10 payable at the door.
