Imam Johari Abdul-Malik said "If I speak up against ISIS, it's because I'm a human being, not because I'm a Muslim."
Sana Saeed, a San Francisco-based producer at the digital Al Jazeera channel AJ said :she "can't blame them for trying to show how they practice, envision and know Islam."
If I condemn ISIS, I am – in essence – condemning myself: I am condemning myself and my communities to the continuation of the never-ending onslaught of suspicion, dehumanization and interrogation that is far from unique to us (especially when living as minorities) but is the most public.
Mean while:
Research Center survey released in September found that half of Americans believe Islam is more likely than other religions to encourage violence.
