Support ICNA CSJ Michigan Billboards Campaign Exposing Islamophobia in India

ICNA CSJ Michigan chapter plans to raise awareness among residents in the state about Islamophobic actions taking place in India by putting up billboards in the state.

Here are just a few examples of the atrocities happening in India right now against Muslims:

• Genocide Watch is warning against an impending mass genocide on minorities in India.
• Hijab as recently banned in educational institutions by Karnataka, India. The ruling is restricted to educational institutes, however, it is being misused by other places in the country to harass Muslim women.
• India objected to UN Resolution declaring March 15 as “International Day to Combat Islamophobia.” This fueled more islamophobia in the country.
