Salam alaik,
I should have posted this earlier, but I kinda forgot to do it.... We went to Dr. Ali Paul White's first lecture last night, and it was really good and informative. It was straight to the point and really reminded us of those that we have forgotten.
It's really really recommended to go and listen to! I urge you, those who are living or are in Perth to come- both Muslim and non-Muslim.

He has taught the contemporary experience of Islam in the West (especially in Australia and France), as manifested in debates around terrorism, hijab and refugees, and the emerging debates on secularism and resurgent Muslim and 'Christian Right' 'fundamentalisms'.
