Stem ill will toward Muslims
The recent terrorist attack on U.S. soil has been foiled, but the aftereffects are still ringing through Americans' ears. Throughout the nation Muslims are now facing worse discrimination than ever.
There needs to be a voice. American citizens are scared. Someone from the Muslim community needs to step up and assure the rest of us that they are not all extremist. If this does not happen I fear that the racism and fear toward the Muslim community will grow until it is possible that things that happened to the blacks will begin to repeat themselves toward Muslims.
Someone, step up and speak before everyone turns against you.
