Thanks to Br. Monem Salam from Saturna Capital for being our guest Sunday. I hope everyone will check out the trailer for UPF's upcoming film about his experiences as an American Muslim learning to fly.
It looks like we won't have a show this week after all. This is partly due to the Superbowl. I'll know more in a day or two.

We've moved to 8:00 pm!
We've decided to move the program to 8:00pm for several reasons:
1) The spot opened up!
2) This time of year the sunset prayer occurs during the 5:00 pm hour.
3) More people are home at 8:00 pm that will be able to call in.
4) There will be fewer conflicts with football and basketball.
On this week's show I'll be joined by Robert Harris of Bridgws for a Just Community formerly NCCJ.
Please listen this week and every week!

Back to Blogging
Assalaamu alaikum,
The robot at Blogger had us shut down temporarily but we've been cleared by the humans so keep checking in for new posts.
God willing I'll be in Detroit Saturday to attend part of the MAS convention. We'll talk about that and more on Sunday.
Also we'll have two new sponsors very soon. Please support our sponsors!

Must Listen Radio...Must Read Article
On today's show we have Sister Karen Dabdoub, Director of Cincinnati's local CAIR office. We'll discuss the reasons for Americans having such a fear of Muslims and Islam. We'll get some great insight from an article by Louay M. Safi that you simply must read!
In a Reuters article the idea is proffered that the mistrust of Muslims and negative attitudes about Islam are largely a result of ignorance. Research has shown that roughly 25-35% of Americans share these negative views while the vast majority of Americans are neutral on Islam and Muslims. I propose that it is this neutrality that is a result of ignorance. The negativity comes from a systematic campaign of misinformation that has its roots in nineteenth century Orientalism. Read the Louay article to learn more. The aforementioned research proved that those Americans who actually knew Muslims and had accurate information about Islam were far more likely to have positive feelings.
