Islamophobia and Interfaith Efforts to Oppose It.
Islamophobia, the unreasoning fear of Islam, is a real thing. As an example, I offer this article about that controversy in a town in Florida that came from a photograph of a group of Muslim men exercising their constitutional right to pray.
There are individuals who profit--financially, politically, personally-- from peddling Islamophobia and pandering to the fears of the uninformed.
There has been a call for protests at mosques across America today. Link.
Fortunately there are interfaith groups actively working to counter them. Link.
On a related note, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks was interviewed on National Public Radio about his new book Not in God's Name. It is well worth a listen.
