Send a Message of Support to Pennsylvania's Muslim Community, and All Who Experience Bias, Violence and Hatred
Our hearts are breaking for all the victims, survivors and families, and for the entire Muslim community, in Christchurch, New Zealand. The violence that took place last Friday is horrendous. Around the world, mosques, synagogues, temples, gurdwaras, churches and all places of worship should be a refuge of peace and safety. Breaching these sanctuaries with violence and hate is horrific and truly intolerable. Everyone deserves to worship in peace.
Can you join us to send a message of support and goodwill to members of the Muslim community in Pennsylvania? We're printing and delivering messages to several local mosques this week.
America’s moms grieve with all those who are suffering in New Zealand and all those around the world who feel targeted and less safe. We also take seriously our responsibility to say no to Islamophobia and hatred, and to reject inflammatory rhetoric that leads to hateful actions and crimes. We are committed to stamping out xenophobia, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, religious persecution of all kinds, and discrimination in every form.
We are devastated that white supremacy, now more openly espoused here in the United States, reportedly helped motivate the attacks in New Zealand. As we stand with all those who experience bias, violence, and hatred, we call on our leaders to reject the policies too many politicians from both major political parties, and especially the Trump administration, espouse that are driven by bigotry. These include the Muslim Ban and the border wall, which codify and symbolize hate. And we call on our leaders also to #DisarmHate now.
