Take Action Now: Don't Let Bigots Pressure TLC - American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee




According to the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the calls for an advertiser boycott are coming from Internet hate sites like "Bare Naked Islam," which recently featured a number of threats of violence targeting U.S. and European mosques, and right-wing groups such as the Florida Family Association and American Decency. 

Sadly corporations, such as Lowe’s, have succumbed to the idiocracy of such garbage campaigns, which are orchestrated by groups and organizations which lack credibility, legitimacy, and are founded on the basic notions of bigotry and racism reminiscent of a shameful era in this country’s history.

ADC (American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee) Legal Director Abed Ayoub states, “The Muslim-American community has nearly $200 billion dollars in spending power -- one of the highest totals for any minority group in the United States. At a time when many corporations are courting the American-Muslim market, it makes absolutely no sense at all that any corporation, including Lowe’s -- that have multiple locations in metropolitan areas with high Arab and Muslim American populations -- would take such action”.

Take Action Now!

ADC is asking you to contact Lowe’s and voice your concern!
