Muslims-Hillary (iman)



Islam is known to be the world fastest growing religion. It will leap from 1.6 billion (in 2010) to 2.76 billion by 2050, according to the Pew study. At that time, Muslims will make up nearly one-third of the world's total population of about 9 billion people. Although this is the world's fastest growing faith, it is discriminated against, especially in America, post 9/11/ 2001. Due to the terrorist attack of 9/11 in New York City, a specific hatred had spread for Muslims all around the world. Till this very day, Muslim-Americans of all ages and races report about experiencing suspicion and discrimination such as my family, my friends, and myself. Muslims are being stopped at airports, they are closely watched by the FBI and CIA, and experience many hardships of discrimination. This is an issue that is under-looked and awareness needs to be made. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton does not have any perspective on this issue.
