Large-scale reality


As reported in Unsettling U.S. Political Climate Galvanizes Muslims to Vote.  (The New York Times, 6/1/2016)
NOT a statement of support for Donald Trump.  “When your existence in society is in danger, you try to mobilize your community,” said the organization’s secretary general, Oussama Jammal. “You have to be part of the entire society.”
