While searching out some information on the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), I discovered the Intersex Society of North America (ISNA). I wonder if they too are planning on holding joint meeting?

Who Speaks for Islam?
Against our tag line of “Islam doesn’t speak, Muslims do” John Esposito and Dalia Mogahed have published a book called “Who Speaks for Islam?” What I have read so far is really promising.

Ahmadi Muslim Community Doesn’t Speak For All Muslims | Religion Dispatches
My latest at RD. Ahmadi Muslim Community Doesn’t Speak For All Muslims | Religion Dispatches. The Muslim-American community is represented by a wide variety of organizations that speak to various interests. Large umbrella organizations, like the Islamic Society of North America, have not had much luck in covering the community because the diversity is nearly uncontainable. Each of these groups speaks with a voice that represents its own constituency. However, the Ahmadi community now seems to be making a serious push to become the central voice that represents Muslim-Americans.

No, but Intersex Society gets lots of emails from people asking whether it’s okay for a Muslim to do this and that… I doubt that Islamic Society gets emails about intersex conditions, since Islamic Society is much bigger and is more famous.
