Islamophobia

The term “Islamophobia” was first introduced as a concept in the early 1990s as “unfounded hostility toward Muslims, and therefore fear or dislike of all or most Muslims.” This contrived prejudice maintains the idea that Muslim communities and individuals pose a threat, that they are violent and support terrorism, that they cannot adapt to modern ways, and are therefore inferior, and that Islam does not share common values with the rest of the world. Such disinformation creates fear, confusion and polarization that creates great difficulty for the lives of many.
