I was sickened when someone recently posted about Stephon Clark in r/Islam and people were quick to say “what does this have to do with Islam?”
Regardless of his religion it has everything to do with Islam. As an American Muslim it is my duty to fight for justice and come to the aid of the oppressed.
I’m sick and tired of Muslims in America expecting others to support us as allies when it comes to our oppression but refuse to return the favor. We should be out there with our Black brothers and sisters saying Black Lives Matter. We should be fighting against the violence being committed against the LGBT community. We should be advocating for the incarcerated population. We should be struggling against the deportation of the undocumented.
I’m also sick and tired of the racism in the Muslim community. We can do much better than this.
