WASHINGTON, Dec. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The
Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation's largest
Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, has released its
annual video, titled "Living Our Faith: Defending
Freedom."
CAIR's 12-minute video details its response to President Trump's
"Muslim Ban" executive orders and to the unprecedented rise in
white supremacy and Islamophobia since Trump's election.
The video highlights major CAIR initiatives such as the launch
of an app through which victims of discrimination may file reports
and learn about their constitutional rights and of an
Islamophobia.org website to monitor the "Islamophobia industry,"
CAIR's efforts to defeat anti-Islam bills introduced in state
legislatures and to challenge anti-Muslim rallies around the
country, and CAIR-sponsored Muslim voter mobilization, lobbying and
"get-out-the-vote" drives. It also shows the "outpouring" of
support for American Muslims since the presidential election.
