    The redacted report today mentions Russian disinformation specifically targeting the Black Lives Matter movement. We are a target because we are changing the world & will keep up the fight for justice.

    We should all be disgusted that 45 has incited violence and encouraged xenophobia and racism against our Black Muslim American sister. This has gone too far.

    We are sickened by the most recent terror attacks in New Zealand and stand strong with the Muslim community and the families of those impacted. We vow to continue to fight the rising threat of white supremacy across the globe.

    This is why we have to fight against 45. His toxicity is impacting the rest of the world. Sending love to Muslim communities around the world.

    New Zealand is one of the safest countries in the world. Friends of mine tell me that major news is a car accident. They don’t have mass shootings. This is what makes this even more scary and worrisome for Muslims all over the world, especially in the West.
