"Acrimonious debates and disputes over Islam-particularly the most visible manifestations like women wearing head scarves, veils, and burqas and the construction of mosques-continue apace. But researchers have not seen a correlation between economic woes and Islamophobia"
To The Editor:
I find it interesting that this statement is made, but then followed by a quote stating that the economic crisis has hit the immigrant population, many whom are Muslims, due to them being dependent on the welfare benefits.
Has it occurred to anyone that a population that is not free to practice their religious traditions publicly, would not feel excepted in the workforce?
