Topic: Being Muslim in the Mon Valley

How discussed: Muslims have been part of American society since the days of the founding fathers, but anti-Muslim rhetoric has heated up in recent years. How are local Muslims bearing up? What are some things that non-Muslims don't understand about Islam? Where are areas that Muslims and non-Muslims can learn about each other and find common ground?
