The American government and people still treat the muslim people in our home country as though they associate themselves with terrorists even after 9 years of speaking otherwise. Muslims who have lived here for all of their lives, or have immigrated here are confused, hurt, and angry at being associated with terrorists. Muslim groups and leaders in the United States say that their organizations share the blame for the little known about the Islam faith.
I think that people in the United States shouldn't be so ignorant to think that all Muslim people are some form of terrorist. It is something that no one wants to deal with in their everyday lives. The people that live here came to get away from the terrorist and they wanted to live their lives free. When we keep our minds closed, we can never let ourselves move forward, let alone them. We limit them before we even get to know them. We group them when they should be considered individuals, and not focus on their religion. We can never tell what kind of religion White people have just by looking at them, and we never(usually) discriminate openly based on faith anymore. So why can some White people openly hate and discriminate against Muslims just by the faith or how they look. If they look like a "terrorist" are you really not going to hire them for a job? It saddens me that people still think this way today in a land that is considered "all men are created equal."
