I'm not seeing much mention of this in the bsky SPSP feed so amplifying this for those unaware of what's happening. Hopefully more concrete news from @spspnews.bsky.social in the near future.

Letter from the president of SPSP apologizing for the acceptance of an incredibly Islamophobic poster and the delayed response by the executive committee.
Screenshot of the SPSP convention app page showing the Islamophobic poster in question, titled “Reconsidering the ‘Religion of Peace’”
Abstract of the poster in question, claiming that “re-analysis” of secondary data, including from the Pew Research Centre, suggest most Muslims support terrorism (reader note: the Pew survey found the opposite, overwhelmingly). The abstract itself does not at all try to describe the analysis done to completely reverse the trend in question, and is mostly an Islamophobic rant. The final paragraph suggests that American is destroying itself
