Carleton College Professor Adeeb Khalid will give a speech entitled “Reform and Contention in Modern Islam” Tuesday.

Khalid is appearing as part of a lecture series titled Middle East Contexts for September 11th.

The lecture series accompanies a Department of History course this spring dealing with the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and features national authorities on terrorism-related topics.

All lectures will be taking place at 8:30 p.m. in 206 Old Horticulture.

Khalid’s views on political strategies recently were published in “The Nation” and he participated in a forum of historians at the University of Minnesota offering perspective on the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
