Boston fears Islamophobia, blankets city bus stops with ‘building the safe space’ guides
By Douglas Ernst - The Washington Times - Tuesday, July 18, 2017
Boston bus stops will be blanketed for the next two weeks with signs aimed at ridding the city of “Islamophobia.”
The Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center cheered an initiative launched on Monday by Democrat Mayor Martin J. Walsh’s office. Citizens taking public transit are likely to encounter 50 signs to educate them on how to stop Muslims from being harassed.
“These posters are one tool we have to send the message that all are welcome in Boston,” Mr. Walsh said in a statement, the Boston Globe reported Monday. “Education is key to fighting intolerance, and these posters share a simple strategy for engaging with those around you.”
