Location: The Heritage Foundation's Allison Auditorium
This documentary tells the story of courageous moderate Muslims
in the United States, Western Europe, and Canada who are taking on
adherents to the radical extremist ideology known as
Islamism.
What is happening to these moderates - who are being ostracized,
intimidated and, in some cases, threatened with death - offers
critical insights into the dangers that both they and we are
facing.
It also highlights steps to help empower these moderates and
others like them.
When the Public Broadcasting Service cut this program - paid for
by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and your tax dollars -
from the "America at a Crossroads" series, they said it was a
"biased, inaccurate view of the subject." But as Congressman
Jim Walsh of Syracuse, NY, said to CPB and PBS officials at a
recent hearing, "there's a concerted and substantial effort on the
part of radical Wahhabist Islam to silence these voices with
physical… [and] verbal intimidation. And [these
filmmakers] document it in the United States, in Canada and around
the world."
On Thursday, July 12 - you can watch, and you can
decide.
