For your weekend read -- I documented the challenges Muslim Americans face across the country to build a cemetery. From vandalism to controversial town halls, and lawsuits to outright bigotry, Muslim Americans just want to bury their loved ones in peace. https://t.co/SRfrPnotSN
Today, in commemoration of the UN's International Day to Combat #Islamophobia, we are joining an international coalition of Muslim advocacy organizations in calling the attention of those committed to advancing justice for all people to injustices being perpetrated by the governments of Israel, India, China, and France. 1/4
At a time where anti-Arab, anti-Palestinian, anti-Muslim rhetoric is at a peak, publishing such content is recklessly irresponsible at best, malicious at worst. A 6yo was stabbed & killed, his mom hospitalized. 3 students were shot & one left paralyzed. Editors should know better
#India's Prime Minister Narendra #Modi has the blood of Muslims, Christians, and other religious minorities on his hands. He does not deserve to be honored by our Congress. Click the link below to urge lawmakers to boycott Modi's visit.

Thanks to @HatemBazian and all the scholars at the 2023 International Islamophobia Conference. Good research helps drive strong advocacy. We walked away with great ideas for our civil rights work.
"The intake staff of the @CAIRNational, the nation’s largest Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organisation, received 5,156 total complaints in 2022.
This represents a 23% decrease since the previous year."

Our latest #civilrights report recorded the first decline in complaints of anti-Muslim incidents since 1995. Although #Islamophobia persists, this is cause for hope. Read our Research and Advocacy Director Corey Saylor's op-ed for Al Jazeera to learn more.

"Islamophobic laws have existed in France for several decades, but recent years have witnessed a political turn that is much more repressive and authoritarian against Muslimness..." pg. 234 of the European #Islamophobia Report 2022. https://t.co/9QCo2wrdSX

This is the treatment Air Force Veteran Saadiq Long has endured from the Oklahoma City Police Department. Why? Because his name was unlawfully included on the so-called "terrorism watchlist." Today, @cair_oklahoma & our legal defense fund are filing a lawsuit on Saadiq's behalf.
We're calling on all Americans to urge their elected officials to reject any attempt by House Speaker McCarthy to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar from her House Foreign Affairs Committee assignment.
