Yesterday, @CAIRMN participated in clean up efforts at a Muslim cemetery targeted with vandalism. Despite the hatred and attacks by anti-Muslim bigots, our community stands strong and united against #Islamophobia and all forms of bigotry.

#Islamophobia is rising worldwide. Mosques & Muslim businesses are being torched by #Hindutva mobs. The French govt. plans to close 7 more mosques by the end of 2021. @SecBlinken must call on India & France to stop persecuting Muslims.
