Equity, Not Equality, Is Needed In The Fight For Social Change
A two-panel illustration breaks down the difference between equity and equality with imagery of three people of varying heights behind a fence at a baseball game. On the left, equality is shown as everyone standing on a crate, but the shortest person cannot see the game, and the middle-height person can just see over the fence. On the right, equity is shown as the shortest individual standing on two boxes, the middle-height person on one, and the tallest without. Everyone can see at the same level.

Stop Shia persecution.

In America, Muslims are often seen as a monolith. As a whole, we have experienced discrimination and persecution from non-Muslims. What people may not know is that Islam actually consists of many sects, including Sunnism, Shi’ism, Ismailism, and Ahmadiyya, much like how Christianity includes Protestantism and Catholicism.
