New Yorkers Against Religion-Based Bigotry
Project: Against Local Bigotry
NYARBB's Project Against Local Bigotry is in process of being launched.
Aims
To counteract local instances of religion-based bigotry here in New York City. (Yes, New York is a wonderfully tolerant cosmopolitan city compared to many other places here in the U.S.A., but even New York is far from perfect in that regard.)
A major focus will be on opposing bigotry that is justified or excused in the name of opposing other kinds of religion-based bigotry, e.g. bigotry against Muslims in the name of opposing Islamism. (See NYARBB's position against both Islamism and anti-Muslim bigotry.)
Information and resources
- Links to other sites - Recent instances of religion-based bigotry here in NYC
- Pamphlets and leaflets - None yet, but we'll probably be producing some soon.
The items listed on the above pages are only a beginning. There will be much more in the future.
Relevant NYARBB task forces
Our only relevant task forces, so far, are our Committee for Dialogue Amongst the Bugaboos of the Religious Right Wing and our Committee Against Satanic Panics.
