The community of Muslims in Kansas City has decided to be proactive about their unfair treatment/ discrimination by their fellow citizens. They called the press, invited them to the mosque, and then called them out for the perpetuation of negative Muslim stereotypes. They said that they live boring, ordinary lives, but the media portrayal of Muslims makes non-Muslims think that we are all terrorist or parts of sleeper cells. I applaud their actions, and I'm surprised that the media even showed it. I know of brothers who have tried similar things here, but the media just edits it out.
