Note: Following

States, are mistaken for being Muslim (Arabic decent). Reports from all
over the states show that Sikhs are experiencing acts of hate crimes and
harassment from their fellow American citizens!
Here is some relative information:

((Things you can do to help stop such
hate crime))
1. Contact both national and local news reporting agencies and ask them to help report how innocent Sikhs are being targets of hate crimes. 2. Avoid gong out in public events, as much as possible, unless its really important. For those of you who are in the San Francisco Bay Area, Please call 1-877-308-5248 or 510-374-7989 if you or someone is victim of hate crime and harassment to get help. 3. Organize local community seminars or community speak out events to help inform your community how Sikhs differ from Muslims. |
