A just, free, and loving world is possible. Let's imagine it today, so we can walk within it tomorrow.

I am young despite my best efforts to grow older.
I am Muslim.
I am a democratic socialist.
And most damning of all, I refuse to apologize for any of this.
⚡️🇺🇸JUST IN: NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani:
We will build a city hall that stands steadfast alongside jewish New Yorkers and does not waver in the fight against the scourge of anti-semitism. Where the more than 1 million muslims know that they belong. Not just in the five boroughs of this city, but in the halls of power… No more will New York be a city where you can traffic in islamophobia and win an election

Tot de 16e eeuw bestond nergens in de christelijke wereld religieuze tolerantie. Ketters werden er levend verbrand. In het Ottomaanse Rijk leefden verschillende godsdiensten naast elkaar. Nederland was het eerste land dat dit voorbeeld overnam in Europa.
