Tara Ijai shares her story at Changing Hands Bookstore in Phoenix on Feb. 8, 2017.

KJZZ partners with the Arizona Republic to bring you the Arizona Storytellers series. We record the live events and share them with you on the radio. In Phoenix, the storytellers sometimes share stories about our community or the life events that have shaped them in general. Megan Finnerty is the creator of the series. 


Tara Ijai shares a story about dealing with hate after converting to Islam.

The next storytelling event is Sept. 28, 2017, at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix.
