ICE: When US Fascism Comes Home Hussam Ayloush

Help us expand our Muslim media project here: Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: In this episode of The Thinking Muslim, we sit down with Hussam Alyoush, CEO of CAIR California, to discuss some of the most urgent civil rights challenges facing Muslim and immigrant communities today. From ICE operations and the shocking deaths of U.S. citizens to the erosion of civil liberties and the rise of Islamophobia, we unpack how state power and fear are reshaping American society. Hussam shares his insights on the driving forces behind the national uproar against ICE, the role of CAIR in defending civil rights, and the differences between U.S. and European Muslim advocacy. We also explore controversial topics like designating CAIR as a foreign terrorist organization, Muslim migration due to Islamophobia, and how to support Syria beyond humanitarian aid. This episode is a critical conversation about justice, civil liberties, and the fight against systemic oppression. Become a member here: Or give your one-off donation here:
