Don't Label Me shows that America's founding genius is diversity of thought. Which is why social justice activists won't win by labeling those who disagree with them. At a time when minorities are fast becoming the majority, a truly new America requires a new way to tribe out. Enter Irshad Manji and her dog, Lily. Raised to believe that dogs are evil, Manji overcame her fear of the "other" to adopt Lily. Defying her labels as an old, blind dog, Lily engages Manji in a taboo-busting conversation about identity, power, and politics.

Professor Manji delivers a clarion call to the table of cultural pluralism. As a former Christian missionary turned agnostic, I was riveted by her clear direction and insights. She offers more than the sum of her experiences as an outspoken lesbian muslim (I cringe even writing those "labels"). Instead, her voice is used to offer a template for humble conflict resolution. True resolution, not a mic drop and walk away. Cultural hot buttons desperately need a format to earnestly engage with opposing views. Otherwise, we need to admit that we only engage those topics in discussion for the entertainment value of argument. Thank you, Professor, you have challenged me anew to consider each individual's textured experiences that lead to labels. Even political discussions run much deeper than talking heads (media sluts, as you dub them) lead us to believe. Committing myself to POOP time, not CCRAP.
