One of the nation’s largest school districts has adopted a resolution
banning “hate speech” against Muslim students while accusing America of
having “a long history of racism and xenophobia.”
The controversial resolution, unanimously approved by the Kansas City
Board of Education on Sept. 28, states that there are 30,000 Muslims
living in the greater Kansas City area, “making invaluable contributions
to our economy, our social and political life, and our culture.”
It goes on to state that discrimination on the basis of religion,
“and against Muslims in particular, is deeply embedded within our
country’s long history of racism and xenophobia.”
The Sept. 28 meeting was reportedly packed with local Muslims seeking
to show their support for the resolution. Shaheen Ahmed of the
Crescent Peace Society,
a Kansas City interfaith organization, requested the board to adopt the
resolution and the Muslims were hoping that other school districts
would follow the lead of Kansas City and adopt similar resolutions,
according to a tweet by Mahnaz Shabbir, an adviser to the Crescent Peace
Society who also attended the meeting.
More from the “anti-hate” resolution is quoted below:
“WHEREAS there has been an unprecedented backlash since
the September 11th attacks in the form of hate crimes and employment
discrimination toward Arab and Muslim Americans and those perceived as
Muslims; and
“WHEREAS Muslims, Muslim Americans, and those perceived as Muslims,
are frequently the targets of abusive and discriminatory police
practices sanctioned by the state including surveillance in their
neighborhoods and places of worship.”
Read the full resolution adopted by Kansas City Board of Education.
The document further resolves that Kansas City schools “condemns all
hateful speech and violent action directed at Muslims, those perceived
as Muslims, immigrants and people of color.”
The school board, according to the resolution, “commits to fostering a
school environment that promotes respect for and curiosity about all
religions and cultures, affirms the equal humanity of all members of the
community, and rejects all forms of bullying and discrimination.”
