Author John Feffer Discusses the Rise in Anti-Islamic Sentiment in the West April 4, 2012

John Feffer, foreign policy expert and author of 'Crusade 2.0: The West's Resurgent War on Islam,' will discuss the recent surge in anti-Islamic sentiment in the United States and Europe and what can be done to stop it. He will look at how the Crusades, the Cold War, and the Global War on Terror have all contributed to how Islam is portrayed -- and denigrated -- in the West, providing a provocative look into recent controversies over Park51, 'All-American Muslim,' and the government surveillance of Muslim citizens.
