Join Candace Lukasik, assistant professor of religion at Mississippi State University and Fellow at the Crown Center for Middle East Studies, Brandeis University, as she discusses her new book Martyrs and Migrants: Coptic Christians and the Persecution Politics of US Empire. The book examines sites of transnational migration between Egypt and the United States addressing how American religious imaginaries of global Christian persecution have remapped Coptic collective memory of martyrdom.
