Islamophobia

On Monday morning, Fellowship of Reconciliation's Executive Director Mark Johnson joined other interfaith leaders in a press conference in Washington, D.C. to speak out against anti-Muslim prejudice. What precipitated this gathering of major voices was the nationwide distribution last month of 28 million copies of a DVD titled Obsession, which addresses the purported threat of radical Islam in the U.S. and worldwide.

On the afternoon of our first day here in Tehran, five of us within the Fellowship of Reconciliation's 7th interfaith peace delegation to Iran were interviewed by a young adult-focused television program.

By wearing green today, you can help make a stand against Islamophobia.
