Founded in 2014 by Professor Karam Dana at the University of Washington Bothell, the American Muslims Research Institute (AMRI) is a pioneering academic center focused on the study of American Muslims. As one of the few U.S.-based institutions dedicated to this field, AMRI bridges scholarly research and community outreach, producing data-driven, intersectional scholarship on American Muslims’ experiences, racialization, and contributions to U.S. society.
AMRI’s research situates American Muslims within broader frameworks of race, religion, and ethnicity, addressing their complex identities and relationships with other marginalized communities. By examining issues such as Islamophobia, racial justice, and political activism, AMRI challenges stereotypes and fosters a more nuanced understanding of American Muslims’ racialized identities, emphasizing the diversity of the community. And situating these experiences within the larger socio-political landscape of US society.
