The mosque in my city that got send a letter with a bullet in it the other day just received another one and it shocks me to see how little people care.
In a world where antisemitism holds so much weight, islamophobia apparently doesn’t matter at all.
(yeah I know that real bigotry against jews barely matters too and that the word has been coopted by zionists)
Honestly, as a Turk, growing up after 9/11, it was difficult…
Damn, you are a Turk, as well a dear American? Hasan?
I am Turkish and Dominican.
You are Turk, Dominican, and a dear American? Is it true that you need to fill out your “race” on various forms over there? If so what do you say yours is when they ask?
I have seen Arab Christians go through additional screening upon entry to the US despite their obvious Arabic Christian names and the crosses they are wearing. Hatred of Islam is still widely acceptable in the West and they use that to hate on all peoples from south and east of the Mediterranean even those who aren’t Muslim. Otherwise they will have to admit that they are just racist, which many sometimes can obviously be, see how Sub-Saharan Christians are treated in Europe.
yeah…
I don’t like to talk about my childhood partly for this reason.
