A recent shooting attack targeting a mosque complex in San Diego, where two gunmen killed three people, has renewed concerns about the rising climate of Islamophobia in the United States. Many advocates say anti-Muslim hate has been fueled by the normalization of inflammatory rhetoric from political leaders and other high-profile public figures.

In this episode, we speak with Jenin Younes, National Legal Director and Interim President of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, about the broader climate of Islamophobia in America, the disparities in how hate crimes are investigated and prosecuted, and the legal and political measures needed to protect the civil rights and safety of Muslim Americans.
