This chart does not only compare discrimination of other faiths, but also just people of different races in general. Once again the Muslim people are on top, experiencing discrimination the most. This shows people must change their outlook because these statistics are astounding and the amount of discrimination is just uncalled for.

“Muslims have replaced Jews as targets of discrimination”
-Nadine Epstein

This quotes shows that the American people need a scapegoat to put their problems on. Especially in the post 9/11 world discrmination toward Muslims is worse than ever. This shows how uneducated people are, putting problems and unfair assumtions on people of different faith.

This photo depicts the Muslim people mourning for a horrible reason. This photo depicts the people mourning the loss of six people who were killed in a Mosque shooting in Wisconsin. It seems as though the subjects in the photo are trying to be strong in tough times. A man who thought Muslims did damage to the community killed innocent people doing the same thing he thought Muslims were supposedly plotting, how ironic.

This photo shows that the Islamic people have religious charities and do volunteer work just as the catholics and other religions do. The people in particular in this photo are sending supply to aid Gaza which has been at te center of recent violence. People must see the Muslim people are a good group of faith and not a group out to get America as many suggest.

This picture shows the discrimination in the United States. It is not like the Muslim people are forcing the issue with their Islamic tradition, they just want to be free to practice their religion which is what this nation supposedly guarantees.

This chart just shows how much hardship Muslims face in society. According to the chart Muslims face the most discrimination by far. In today’s world from past experiences with the Muslim faith people tend to generalize the whole nation of Islam for one horrendous event.

These women are protesting equal rights in Iran for women. Throughout the history of the nation there was so much bias towards women because they were looked upon as objects more than equal human beings. Men in Iran feel they have a sense of ownership over women when they do not have that right at all. These women have a choice to do what they want. Even though there is a lot of discrimination against Muslims the people of that faith have to stop discriminating against each other.

(http://www.nowtheendbegins.com/pages/radicalIDEOLOGY/no-mosque-at-ground-zero.htm, Article by Noni Darwish). These posters were made for rallies against the mosque being built at ground zero. I understand why people would not want a mosque next to ground zero considering the events which took place on 9/11. But there is no need to insult the entire nation of Islam and generalizing the nation of Islam as all terrorists. This shows the narrow mind of people in America and this needs to change.

(http://www.deltacollege.edu/org/caps/past%20events.html, From the documentary Divided we Fall, Director of Documentary: Sharat Raju, Producer:Valarie Kaur and Sharat Raju, 2008) The quote from Susan Sontag that describes this photo to me is from “In Plato’s Cave” and the quote reads “To collect photographs is to collect the world”. This quote matches the photo becasue saying to collect the world would mean getting the attention of people or a group of people. This photo is obviously aimed at the American people especially since the documentary is about religious and ethnic discrimination toward Muslims after September 11th,2001. The photo just represents that the American people should stick together and not be against each other especially through the hard times after 9/11.

This documentary is about the Serbian execution of the Bosnian Muslims in the 1990’s. This documentary was different because the role of the narrator was limited. The story of what really happened in Bosnia was shown through interviews with the victims of what happened.  As for what the Bosnian Serbian conflict was about, it was basically what Hitler wanted to do and that was to “ethnically cleanse” the German people. Basically the same thing happened in Bosnia where the Serbians wanted to persecute the Bosnian Muslims creating a mass genocide. The stories from the victims were horrific it went from shooting and stabbing Bosnians to “cleanse” Europe to raping women so that they would have Serbian babies to add to the population. What stuck out to me the most is that even though these women were brutally raped and their stories are horrifying some of them decided to keep the babies.

The women raised the babies as their own and in the Muslim faith in which no biased was against them. Even a Muslim priest in the video was interviewed and said again the babies would be welcomed and raised in the Muslim faith not to be like their fathers at all who conducted these evil acts. As for the Serbians who conducted these evil and horrific acts they were never “proven” guilty even though this has been acknowledged as a genocide, nobody was held as responsible. It is basically like the whole world knows what happened and who is responsible, but still they were getting off of the charges.
