Episode Description
One of the biggest civil liberties issues of our day is how we as a country treat Americans of the Muslim faith. In this segment our guest, Hassam Ayloush, who is the Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) of California, discusses what it is like being a Muslim today in America. This immigrant from Lebanon is a well trained and successful engineer who left that profession to help, as he and CAIR call it, protect civil rights, promote justice and empower all Americans, regardless of faith. In addition, CAIR supports the Free Enterprise System, because this system is designed to give equal opportunities to all. So what is it like living in America today as a Muslim? It should be the same as it is for any other person, regardless of their ethnicity, faith or background. But it isn't. Tune in and see how we all can help to change that reality, because this is not who we are as a country, or as a People.
