Ridiculing Islamophobia
16 September
The Council on Islamic American Relations has come up with a novel way to reduce Islamophobia in the United States. The council has created a video that mimics the hundreds of adverts for prescription drugs shown on American television every day. The imaginary product Islamophobin relieves bigotry and intolerance among users. And, like real drug commercials, the narrator warns of the side effects, which include fondness, brotherhood, and acceptance.
