Rashida Tlaib: “With little to no input, the city of Detroit created one of the Nation's most pervasive and sophisticated surveillance…”

Dearborn is a beautifully diverse place, home to a vibrant, loving Muslim community, and our families do not deserve to be subjected to such hate and bigotry.

Their silence is complacent and normalizes fearmongering and racism. We know that targeting any community doesn’t allow any of us to be safe.

To all our Dearborn families and residents: I have your back. I wish I could take away this pain, but know that you are not alone.

People of all faiths and of all backgrounds belong, and deserve to practice their religion and celebrate their cultures freely without fear.
