MAS Freedom Launches 'Faith Over Fear and Justice for All' Campaign in Katy, Texas Popularity:

MAS Freedom

MAS Freedom (MASF), as the civic and human rights advocacy entity of the Muslim American Society (MAS), in response to an attempt to both slander and intimidate the Muslim community of Katy, Texas, announces today the initiation of a "Faith Over Fear and Justice For All" campaign in support of the Katy Muslim community and their right to build an Islamic center.

Opponents of the center, who own property adjacent to the site of the proposed Islamic Center of Katy, have initiated an Anti-Muslim campaign, which includes the use of a misleading internet website address that continues to post extremely derogatory and inflammatory propaganda directed against the Muslim community and Prophet Muhammad.

The purpose of the Faith Over Fear and Justice for All Initiative, according to MAS Freedom Executive Director Mahdi Bray, is to "encourage and build a positive interfaith atmosphere that affirms the right of all people of faith to live in freedom from intimidation and hatred, and that builds bridges of real understanding and mutual respect for the good of the entire community."

MAS Freedom (MASF) is a civic and human rights advocacy entity and sister organization of the Muslim American Society (MAS), the largest Muslim, grassroots, charitable, religious, social, cultural, civic and educational organization in America -- with 55 chapters in 35 states. Learn more at .
