Two upcoming related
events, a protest and a conference, will provide Americans with an opportunity
to learn more about the Gulen Movement. The protest is an excellent opportunity
for those in the NYC, NJ, and PA area to speak out against Gulen charter school
expansion.
These protests are
forming a bridge across the Atlantic that can help Americans understand more about the dark side
of the secretive and controversial Turkish religious group that runs the
largest charter school network here!

Yet [the
Gulen movement’s] structure, ambitions, and size remain opaque, making
assessment of its impact and power difficult... Fethullahci are often loath
to declare themselves openly as such.

The
precise number of [Fethullah Gulen Community] members is difficult to
estimate since some publicly deny affinity or membership with the movement.
