Stand with East African Youth Entrapped by the FBI

May 9, 2016

Monday, May 9th – Protest @ 8am, Court solidarity starts @ 9am

Join us outside the federal courthouse for the first day of the trial of local Muslim youth from the Somali community entrapped by the FBI. Join us to stand with these young men’s families and denounce the Dept. of Justice’s entrapment, surveillance, and terror baiting of the Somali community. This case is part of an ongoing organized attack against the East African community facing rising levels of Islamophobia, xenophobia, and racism and government repression. Organized by the Coalition to Defend the Muslim Community. Participating organizations include the Global Somali Diaspora, the Anti-War Committee, Minnesotans against Islamophobia, among others.
