Assalamu'alaykum John,
Having just celebrated Ashura, we are reminded of the terrible
persecution of people groups in the past-the enslavement of the Jews
in Egypt, the horrifying treatment of Ḥussain ibn Ali along with his
family and followers, and the suffering of many others throughout
history and into the present.
At MLFA, we stand against persecution of any and all kinds. Certainly we
stand with our Muslim brothers and sisters, protecting them from
government overreach. But we also stand alongside our Black brothers and
sisters, who continue to face systemic discrimination in this country;
and our Latin and Hispanic brothers and sisters, who are being abused at
our southern border; and our Asian brothers and sisters, who are being
blamed for a pandemic that they have not created.
We exist to work to right wrongs, not just for our generation but for
generations to come.

Arshia Ali-Khan,
