All-American Muslim debuts on TLC amidst controversy



TLC's All-American Muslim premieres this Sunday, November 13th @ 10pm ET/PT and despite positive reviews from Time Magazine, Hollywood Reporter, and the NYT - and a warm reception from CNN, The Today Show and Al Jazeera English, All-American Muslim is under serious attack from a systematic wave of Islamophobes working 24/7 across all of the show's nline platforms. In other words, people are using this show and TLC's very prominent Facebook pages to spread anti-Muslim rhetoric and misinformation about Islam and American Muslims.

Anti-Muslim zealots like
Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer have already denigrated the series, before it has even aired, for not representing a 'balanced' view of American Muslims -- Geller: "Clearly this program is designed to counter the fictional threat of 'Islamophobia' by showing Muslims who aren't terrorist monsters…it is an attempt to manipulate Americans into ignoring the threat of jihad."

All-American Muslim will be available in over 99 Million American homes starting this Sunday (every time it runs) and we cannot allow the show to be hijacked by a very loud, organized, and well funded group. They are effectively drowning out the vast majority of American Muslims across the country.
