Philadelphia schools partner with Muslim advocacy group for guides on 'American Jews' and teaching 9/11

Philadelphia schools have announced a partnership with a Muslim advocacy group to introduce new educational guidelines and workshops, including resources on teaching about the September 11 attacks and a session exploring Jewish political influence in the United States. The educator's guide encourages teachers to avoid terms that link Islam to terrorism and to discuss the impact of bigotry on minority communities following 9/11. Some workshops, such as one examining Jewish political power, have been removed from the group's website after controversy. The partnership comes amid criticism of the advocacy group's leadership for comments made about the October 7 attacks on Israel, which have drawn condemnation from government officials and calls to revoke the group's nonprofit status.
