Was assaulted today at
Drive Test #Kitchener by a woman who kept spewing racist hate against "f$@king brown people" when asked to wait in line. When I told her this was not OK, she came up to my face to threaten me. That's when people (and I) started recording her. A thread...

I was in a state of shock after being hit...quite literally ...but also shocked that this could happen to me- a vocal, professional advocate against #hate, #racism and #Islamophobia. This is literally what we do at the @CMW_KW2010 - We help victims report hate & get supports /3
Today I was reminded that even our friends hold / promote #Islamophobia + Islamophobic tropes (a “liberal,” gay, Jewish, well educated + traveled doctor). cnn.com/2021/09/11/us/…
As @DMogahed says, “‘Fear kills freedom, so Islamophobia is bad for democracy, not just Muslims.’”
#Islamophobia, subtle or overt, latent or virulent, is not a friend.
Excise it, don’t excuse it.

Maybe it’s helpful to rethink what being a friend, a promoter of justice * fairness, means + could look like.

This week, many of us started Ramadan with the news of Ahmed, a young man in #Ottawa, being berated by a guard associated with @VIA_Rail, for praying inside a train station. 
The right to worship freely is a cornerstone of Canadian society and democracy. The guard's actions amounted to blatant #Islamophobia.
We got involved to help Ahmed. We made it clear to VIA Rail and other authorities that the incident is indicative of systemic #Islamophobia. Real solutions are needed.
From all of us at NCCM, we wish you and all your loved ones a joyous Ramadan Mubarak.
This Ramadan, let's pave a path to justice together.
This Ramadan, let's pave a path to justice together.
Throughout this Ramadan, we will tell you about the many ways we are working towards a more just future for our communities at NCCM. After hearing from so many of you, we will be laying out a collective vision.
For a more just education system for our children.
For a more just education system for our children.
For governments and laws free of #Islamophobia and discrimination.
For public spaces where we can walk freely without fear.
For brave and courageous foreign policy.
For our freedom to be #Muslim no matter where we are.

UPDATE ON QURAN DESECRATION INCIDENT:
Earlier this month, we were made aware of a disturbing incident of a student desecrating the Quran at a public school in the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board. @kprschools

We have been working closely with impacted communities to address serious ongoing issues at the school and board levels.
Last night, we met with the @kprschools alongside community members to ask for change. Courageous #Muslim students spoke about their experiences and have been pushing for change. It was exceedingly clear that the current situation is unacceptable.
How many Assam products are exported to Muslim countries. This statement should be good enough to stop all Assamese exports and Assamese pro BJP job seekers in Gulf. Poverty will teach some morality lessons to those who vote for #Islamophobia #assamese #IslamophobiaDay #Madarsa

THREAD / #Gujarat Genocide 2002
It's been 21 years since the brutal Gujarat massacres. Armed Hindutva mobs rampaged through Muslim neighbourhoods killing at least 3,000 Muslims and raping thousands of Muslim women and girls.

It is estimated that at least 250 Muslim girls and women were gang raped and then burned to death by Hindutva mobs.
Muslim Children were force fed petrol and then set on fire, pregnant women were gutted and then had their unborn child's body shown to them.

An international fact-finding committee formed of all women international experts from US, UK, France, Germany and Sri Lanka reported, "sexual violence was being used as a strategy for terrorising women belonging to minority community in the state."

At Hindu Janakroash Morcha rally, far-right leader T Raja Singh once again gave open calls for violence against Muslims and pitched for their economic boycott.
Note: “Landya” is an anti-Muslim slur.

A thread examining projection by Islamists. In simple words, what Islamists themselves do, as part of war propaganda, they blame RSS for it. This thread offers no defence of #RSS, only highlights Islamist projection as a propaganda tactic.

Bismillah. Today, we are releasing a statement to clarify how our civil rights group identifies #Islamophobia, how we address depictions of Prophet Muhammad (may peace be upon him), and how we view the controversy at @HamlineU. Read this thread or the full statement below. 1/12
Over the past 30 years, we never hesitated to call out #Islamophobia, a pervasive form of bigotry that impacts Muslims worldwide. But we never used the word as a catch-all term for anything offensive or irreligious. To identify it, we look at intent, acts & circumstances. 2/12
We have seen no evidence that a former @HamlineU professor acted with bigoted intent or engaged in Islamophobia when she analyzed a medieval painting depicting Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) that was drawn hundreds of years after his passing by a Muslim artist. 3/12
THREAD: Powerful #AI like #ChatGPT is the talk of the town. As a #HinduAdvocacy organization, we checked to see how it frames responses on #Hinduism vs other faiths. The results are concerning and display deep #bias. Read on. 1/n 👇🏽
One of the 1st questions we tested a few days ago was “Is Hinduphobia real?” We found the #AI response to be biased and sending mixed messages, especially when compared to its clear measured responses to questions against #Antisemitism and #Islamophobia. 2/n
Next, jokes about Hindu deities or religious figures are deemed appropriate and apparently not disrespectful or offensive vs those about figures from other religions! Others like @KalavaiVenkat and @mairal have also highlighted this. 3/n

The appetite of #Islamophobia & to blame Muslims for everything wrong is so high among the fascist Hindu majority that they want to believe every lie and tricks. They had actually blamed Muslims for #Covid_19 despite it was a proven fact that they had nothing to do with it.
While the world was fighting #Covid_19 Hindu majority took the opportunity to attack own Muslim minority. Muslim hawkers were boycotted and beaten up by Hindus. False videos of Muslims spitting on currency notes were spread. Indian media actively took part in demonizing Muslims
The members of Tabligh Jamaat who had come to India spent almost a year in prison and were falsely accused of spreading #Covid_19 & were exonerated by the Indian courts but Indian Media spread fake news of them walking naked spitting. HINDU majority wants to believe such stories

🧵 This evening I attended the premier of Holocaust Learning UK’s newest film ‘Out of the Darkness: Steven’s Story’ at @JW3London by @TapestryPics narrated by @jasonsfolly. The film is aimed at year 9 students learning about the Holocaust. @HolocaustLearn holocaustlearninguk.org
The (free) 1h film is INCREDIBLE. Please please tell your #history departments all about it. I’ve been learning about the #Holocaust since I was 11 and learnt so much I didn’t know from this film, which centres on the impact of Nazis in Holland. @histassoc @HolocaustLearn
I didn’t know that 300,00 Dutch workers went on strike after Nazi roundups of Jews in Holland.
I didn’t know that Dutch resistance members sacrificed their lives to burn town records to try to protect the identities of their Jewish neighbours... nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/a…

Paid Ads in certain US news publications are new fad for anti-India propaganda.
A recent ad in the garb of ‘appeal’ on India’s human rights by Islamist fronts affiliated with Jamaat/ISI is most naked attempt so far.

Being #Pride2022 you promised to fight for LGBT.
Also as you are heading Anti #Islamophobia in @JoeBiden Gov, you can look into dozens of Islamic nations whose law demands death to #LGBTQIA this includes Somalia, your birthplace.
Also, look into religious text opposing #LGBT 🙏🏼

During his official visit to the United States of America, the #OIC Secretary-General, H. E. Mr. #Hissein_Brahim_Taha, met today, May 25, 2022 at the headquarters of the State Department in #Washington, DC, with the US Secretary of State, H. E. Mr. Anthony Blinken.
During the meeting, the two sides discussed bilateral relations between the OIC & the USA & ways to enhance and develop them. They also discussed the outcome of the inaugural strategic dialogue between the OIC & the United States, which was held on May 23-24, 2022 in #Washington.
The two sides agreed on the importance of consolidating these relations in various fields, in light of the challenges facing the world, foremost of which are the situations in the #MiddleEast, #Africa and #Asia.
