Muslim groups raise nearly $500,000 for families of ‘Portland heroes’

'The inspiring display of interfaith solidarity follows a long history of Muslim groups raising money for victims of tragedy. '

'Stories of mutual compassion are becoming more common, but they belie a darker reality: Hate incidents against religious groups are on the rise. '

'When black churches across the country were struck by a wave of arson attacks in 2015, for example, Muslim groups pulled together $90,000 to help their neighbors with repairs. '

'That’s the slogan of Muslim organizations that have raised nearly half a million dollars for the families of three Portland, Oregon men violently attacked when they tried to protect Muslim women being berated by a white supremacist. '

'Meanwhile, assailants like the alleged killer in Portland — people spouting Islamophobic, xenophobic, and racist views — continue to make headlines. '
