Anti-Muslim hate is quickly escalating in the United States. The sustained “anti-Shariah” movement is taking its toll and further normalizing demonization and dehumanization of our neighbors who choose Islam as their faith.
In this video I share (content warning) an unhinged hateful rant by a now identified woman in a grocery store in Texas. After her comments, I share my response. Please watch with caution as the abusive woman uses deeply troubling language.
My ask of everyone reading this is take a moment to reflect on how much power you have. The fact that you are here is a huge win, because it means that education, compassion, and community are important to you. I am grateful. If you are among those who have the means to invest $5/mo or $50/year to support Islam Today as a paid subscriber, please do. Likewise, please do share this post with your network to spread awareness of how we respond to such hate with facts.
We will never have a paywall, but support from thoughtful neighbors like you goes a long way to make this work sustainable.
Let’s wage this intellectual Jihad of the Pen, together.
