Pecking Order – Dealing with Islamophobia

(Columbus, OH – August 29, 2010) – Excerpt from sermon by Rev. Deborah C. Lindsay, Minister of Spiritual Care, First Community Church, Columbus, Ohio.

 


Quote at 9:10 “Remember the founder* of Islamic Circle of North America [http://www.ICNA.org] who worked at the World Trade Center and died on 9/11. That same group now is giving tens of thousands of copies of the Quran [http://www.sponsoraquran.com] in response to the campaign of burning of the Quran. In the language of their own tradition they are spreading words of faith, peace and hope.”

 

*[Correction: Tariq Amanullah was an active member of ICNA and one of the founders of the Muslim Family Day at Six Flags, an ICNA event]
