BREAKING NEWS: In a historic move, the Peel District School Board became Canada's first school board to adopt an anti-Islamophobia strategy. @PeelSchools has shown great leadership in adopting this strategy, and sets an example for the education sector. Read our statement below.

"We will tell them hate will not silence us and we will not live in fear ... We hope that all Canadians and people of the world will have the courage to choose love and not hate."

Here's what we need to those who are asking:
- A national summit on hate.
- Online hate legislation.
- Third-party reporting of hate so that victims don't have to go directly to police (who must investigate & report back).
- Embedded anti-racism education.

I am a visibly Muslim woman. I am tired. I am scared. I am also not going to stop.
These attacks devastate and they continue to be unsurprising.
Understanding that our liberation is connected is about survival not rhetoric.
I am heartbroken. And I am angry.
Ramadan Kareem to all celebrating Ramadan.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar.
During this month, many muslims refrain from eating and drinking from dawn to sunset. Fasting allows one to empathize the less privileged @DavidSuzukiSS
Suhoor (Arabic) Sehri (Urdu, Persian) is the pre-dawn meal Muslims eat in Ramadan.
For us this morning - awake by 4, meal complete by 5. Fruit, nuts, protein, and lots of water to stay hydrated.
Every morning is so special. Until 8:15, we refrain from food & water.
I used to read the @nytimes all the time as a child, but I never could have imagined that I would one day see my name in the company of such esteemed journalists.
Today, a few weeks shy of my 19th birthday, I made my NYT debut by writing about @cw_kungfu: https://t.co/X8ng89yrA6
