  Islamophobia Adds to he Syrian Refugee Crisis  Racism has been reflected in discriminatory laws, practices, and actions (including violence) against racial or ethnic groups throughout the history of the United States. Since the early colonial era, White Americans have generally enjoyed legally or socially-sanctioned privileges and rights that have been denied to members of various ethnic or minority groups. European Americans have enjoyed advantages in matters of citizenship, criminal procedure, education, immigration, land acquisition, and voting rights.

Stories of oppression and resistance from these groups are often ignored, manipulated, or framed in ways that dehumanize them. This systemic bias allows injustices, like the current massacre in Pale...

This is because Western societies only react and pay attention to a problem when celebrities make a statement about an issue, rather than their government. This is especially the case with Syrian refugees because many politicians especially Republicans are using fear and Islamophobia to create biased policies in order to ban the entire Muslim race and stop accepting Syrian refugees, even if a majority of them are innocent people who are in need of projection not violent meaningless killing of other Innocent people. This xenophobic action is simply based on the stereotype that all Muslims are rad...
