Olympic medal-winner Ibtihaj Muhammad, the first American athlete to compete in the Olympics while wearing a hijab, plans to visit Atlanta on Oct. 29th for a series of events in support of Georgia's Muslim community, including:

Oct. 29th @ 2 pm, iA: Atlanta Muslim Voter Turnout Rally at the Center for Civil & Human Rights (Free & Open To Public)

The event, "Make History with Ibtihaj: Atlanta Muslim Election Rally," is scheduled to take place at the Center for Civil & Human Rights from 2:00 to 4:00 pm on Oct. 29th, the only Saturday that all Georgia counties plan to hold early voting.

Ibtihaj Muhammad, who won a medal alongside her teammates at the Summer Olympics in Rio, plans to speak about the importance of voting, especially for Georgia Muslims.

This non-partisan event, which is free and open to the public, has been organized by a coalition of Atlanta Muslims, including the Georgia Muslim Voter Project, I-PAC Georgia, Muslim Mix and the Georgia chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-GA).
