Get the App! Spend 5 Minutes, Make 5 calls! #Resist

Spend 5 minutes, make 5 calls. Available at Google Play and the App Store! Brought to you by Michael Moore - on Twitter: @MMFlint


Turn your passive participation into active resistance. Facebook likes and Twitter retweets can’t create the change you want to see. Calling your Government on the phone can.

Calling is the most effective way to influence your representatives. 5 Calls does the research for each issue, determining out which representatives are most influential for which topic, collecting phone numbers for those offices and writing scripts that clearly articulate a progressive position. You just have to call.

Learn more about the project at 5calls.org.

The full context of what Thomas Jefferson wrote to in 1787, to Edward Carrington:“The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right. And were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.”

Birthday of Abraham Lincoln: Let Us Not Forget...

I note that the American Civil Liberties Union is recognizing Feb. 12 as the birthday of Abraham Lincoln. Let us not also forget that under the order of Abraham Lincoln, on December 26, 1862, thirty-eight Santee Sioux Indians dangled lifeless in the air. A spectator boasted that this was "America's greatest" public execution."

What brought about the hanging of the 38 Sioux Indians in Minnesota December 26, 1862 was the failure "again" of the U.S. Government to honor its treaties with Indian Nations. Indians were not given the money or food set forth to them for signing a treaty to turn over more than a million acres of their land and be forced to live on a reservation. #NoDAPL #StandingRock

A memorial to the memory of the dead now stands in downtown Mankato in Reconciliation Park.

Abraham Lincoln - DOB: February 12, 1809.

ABOUT YUNUS LAW P.C.

We present all options in a clear, understandable manner such that our client’s can make an informed decision about their future.

ABOUT ICNA COUNCIL FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE

ICNA Council for Social Justice (CSJ) is a social justice/human rights organization that strives to systematically facilitate assertive Muslim involvement in the field of human struggle for the rights of the poor and oppressed in the United States.

Established by the Islamic Circle of North America, Council for Social Justice enters the social justice/human rights arena in America to cooperate with existing social justice efforts, and organize new initiatives when appropriate, to eliminate barriers to full citizenship rights and privileges, work to restore civil liberties required for a democratic society, and raise public awareness and work to remove the gross inequities of the US criminal justice system.

The mission of all of the Prophets, including the Prophet Muhammad ibn Abdullah (peace be upon him), was to elevate human existence and establish unparalleled just societies through submission to the Creator.

“Oh you who believe! Be standard bearers for Justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as against yourselves, or your parents, Or your kin, whether it be rich or poor; For Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts, lest you Swerve, and if you Distort Justice or decline To do Justice, verily Allah is well-Acquainted with all that you do.” Qur’an 4:135

Cii Radio Interview - The Intellectual Challenge: Post 9/11 and Reversion to Islam | Aishah Schwartz (2005)

Assalamu Alaikum.

For the first time in 12-years, a radio interview I did with another revert sister in 2005 is now available online, Al-hamdulillah.

Listen to Aishah Schwartz (via Egypt) and Sumayah Fayed's (via USA) 2005 interview on the Cii Broadcasting–South Africa radio program, The Intellectual Challenge: Post 9/11 and Reversion to Islam on #SoundCloud
 

[Part 1] - (Begins at minute 1:11) https://soundcloud.com/aishah-schwartz/cii-radio-interview-2005-part1-aishah-schwartz

[Part 2] https://soundcloud.com/aishah-schwartz/cii-radio-south-africa-interview-part-2-aishah-schwartz

It was nostalgic listening again to the interview, but Subhan'Allah, here we are – 12-years later – and Islamophobia is worse than ever. لا Ø­َÙˆْÙ„َ Ùˆَ لا Ù‚ُÙˆَّØ©َ اِÙ„َّا بِاللّÙ‡ِ
La Hawla wa la Quwatta illa Billah (There is no Might or Power except with Allah)

Please feel free to listen and share, insha'Allah.

Ma'Salaama.
Aishah
