Still fondly remembering the moving experience I had last Saturday at the Interfaith #Iftar about #JusticeThroughCompassion. Grateful to have worked with my friends - a Christian Pastor, Muslim Imam, and Jewish Cantor. People of faith uniting is what this world needs. #Ramadan
My thanks to @KOINNews for attending our #Ramadan Interfaith #Iftar at @AMC_Portland this past weekend. Portland's Iftar was one of the 34 such events being hosted by our community around the country. #JusticeThroughCompassion

My heart is broken that we have yet yet another school shooting today, this time at #oxfordhighschool in Michigan. This is every family's worst nightmare. My prayers are with the families of the 3 teenagers who were killed, and the 8 who are wounded.

Last week, Muslims were hurt by the bigoted words from a member of U.S. Congress, who referred to a Muslim Congresswoman as a member of “Jihad Squad” and said how fear of being alone w/ a Muslim in an elevator was alleviated only because the Muslim “doesn’t have a backpack.” 1/4
