the government marginalizes muslims and refuses to recognize them as muslim. it is my hope that the new prime minister of the government will promote interfaith harmony, and protect the rights of religious minorities. finally, in sudan, the government arrests, intimidates church members. it denied permits for the construction of new churches. we encourage the government of sudan to a gauge concretely on the religious freedom action plan provided by the department last year. unfortunately, the list goes on. no one should have to live in fear, worship in secret, or face discrimination because of his or her beliefs. as president trump has said, we look forward to a day when "people of all faiths, christians, muslims, jewish and hindus can follow their hearts and worship according to their conscience." the state department will continue a severance to make that a reality. recently nominated ambassador at large for international religious freedom, governor brownback will be the highest ranking official to take up this important post. we look forward to his swift co

my experience of being a muslim -- i've been a muslim all my life. i went to an nyu -- last week, towards the end of ramadan. that was the first time i had been in a room with more than 50 muslims in maybe a decade. because i had found that i -- it's very odd. i grew up across europe and africa. i was born in london, we moved to nigeria. i always found myself more comfortable going in nigeria than the u.k. that to me was down to issues of representation. we talk a very good game about how we are all equal and the same. because we are human beings, there are very many interpersonal issues. i never felt comfortable going to the mosque in the u.k.. i had a couple of bad experiences that made me go, i will just pray at home. it's fine. going to nyu and looking around that room and seeing so many people, just looking at every shade, every color, all these languages that were coming up, and people had all these histories, second-generation, third-generation people, and looking at that and going i'm 16 months into living in this country. i felt a very emoti

who areects both people muslim and non-muslim in the prison system. throughout the prison system, muslim is the second largest faith. and their influence in this fashion and islam continues to ideologies extremist may also spread along with that throughout the prison system. what i am saying is we have to get on thew forefront of this and get ahead of it by getting into these prison systems and reaching the inmate populations. by bringing them up today and properly educating and developing them concerning extremism and concerning misinterpretations of islam so that they can be properly equipped to understand what is anyg on and to deflect doubtful matters that may be presented to them. then as months and years, they come back into society, we may actually have .eal-time homebred terrorists these are the thoughts i have to offer as a premise to open up our minds and get us thinking a little bit. >> thank you.

but he rejects the idea that halal tourism divides muslims from non-muslims. on the contrary, he says, it allows t them to adopt one of e aspects of the western way-of-life and discover non-muslim countries they wowouldn't discover otherwise le britain and the united states. >> french muslims used to go and stay with parents or grandparents back in the old country. everyone would climb into the car, and they'd drive across france, across spain even, and take the ferry to algeria, morocco or tunisia. the new generation of muslims is more rooted in europe and often has a lot more purchasing power. many young muslims are professionals, in medicine or with innovators who are reinventing the wheel. they're also upending those ordinary tasks, making the daily grind easier and in the process, creating a better world. i'm mike walter, coming to you from the heart of new york city's vibrant times square. let's take it "full frame."

somalia is a muslim majority country. over 99% of somalis are muslim. for a very long time, if you were to bring up this issue of mental health, a person being depressed, or a person even being stressed out, you would be told that you are possessed. you are possessed by demons. you need to go and recite more koran. you need to pray in the mosque. there is nothing wrong with your mental health. that's not an issue. it's not surprising that young kids would go to their parents and say, i'm feeling stressed out. they would say, there is no such thing as stress. so for a very long time, due to lack of education, even lack of correct islamic education, again because islam does not say anything negative about mental health. it is something that is important, and we treated just like we treat physical health. we take care of it, we maintain it, we take the proper steps to ensure that that part of ourselves remains healthy. so thankfully, over time, as the education barrier, the language barrier, the cultural a barrier has eroded over time, the somali community

muslim communities. it is across all, but it doesn't mean it doesn't happen and it needs to be addressed. what do you feel? there is a thing here, there is a pattern, that reoccurring whenever this happen — i am sure you can relate to this. when you hear these stories breaking, you wince when you hear muslim names, and as a community, we are really uncomfortable and really used to reacting. we are used to reacting and saying this is nothing do with us our or community. i don't think anyone in their right mind would say this is a theological issue, they are doing this because they are good muslims. of course, no—one would say that. having said that, we have to acknowledge that sex and sexuality and gender and respect for the opposite gender, are issues within certain parts of the south asian community, the arab community and large sections of the muslim community. these are things that we have to discuss, in our communities. and we have seen this pattern, in newcastle and rotherham and we can't shy aw

i think on every muslim majority country in the world, muslims have fewer rights. why wouldn't that give americans pause as many muslims are moving here? >> not true. there are many countries, malaysia, indonesia, many countries that are muslim majority enshrined the rights of other nonmuslim faiths. in malaysia, there are people who will say you have to follow, certain things that are more appropriate to islam. the majority of people there are not like that. >> tucker: wait a second, every arab country, every single one has separate rights for muslims and non-muslims and every single christian majority country, religious pluralism is the law. there's a massive massive difference in outlook, a lot of muslims see religion as pluralism. >> they are cultural attitudes, if you read the cover on, it says that you must tolerate, there is no compulsion in religion, the second chapter specifically says that and specifically enshrines the rights of other people for their religious practice, especially people of the book. >> tucker: you often hear people say sharia is intole

now, this affects both peoples who are muslim and non-muslim in the prison system. i'll tell you why. throughout the prison system, islam is the second largest faith, but it's fastly growing, and many people are embracing the faith of islam throughout the prison system nationally. so if they are influenced in this fashion and islam continues to spread, well, then these extremist ideologies may also spread along with that throughout the prison system. so what i'm saying is we have, we have opportunity. we have opportunity now to get on the forefront of this, to get ahead of it by getting into these prison systems, reaching the inmate population, bringing them up-to-date and properly educating them and properly developing them concerning extremism and concerning misinterpretations of islam. so that they can be properly equipped to understand what is going on and to deflect any doubtful matter that a may be presented to them. the if we do not -- if we do not, then as months and years come and they come back into society, then we may actually have realtime home-bred ter

that it comes from within the muslim community and whether it comes from within the far right terrorism of violence is wrong full stop on which nobody should be making excuses for it. i mean we've got thirty seconds you want to respond just your final thoughts are not. no i'm glad because i'd rather come to the would agree that we both had. no no of course no i completely disagree but i you know i guess you know why don't we have it there i that's nice i like that point why not in deede a little bit of agreement at the end thank you for both spirited debate moment from the ramadan fondation heart of its political satirist from new york city.

and non-muslims, where muslims have to choose whether they're going to identify as a muslim or not and i think the fact that we're seeing attacks on mosques in response to isis directed and inspired attacks is a very worrisome sign, especially as it's coming other here. the couldn't messaging is, last lot that the obama admgs could have done in terms of countermessaging. mosul amic state held up as the capital of the caliphate. life in mosul was there. the government was nothing like what they had experienced. they had been living thunder government for three years. we took back mosul and destroyed city we should have had an aid convoy coming in to rebuild the city right after the fall of mosul to deliver to the people what the islamic state had taken away from them. we're looking at countermessage, the resonance, i think, here today, in terms of join the islamic state, be an instant member of a global community, defend muslims worldwide, do what the united states is not doing for your people. we missed the concept that there is a community that allah has united under his faith that he

what's the mood of the muslim community like right now? it's pretty sad to see hate crimes increasing against muslims in america. at the same time, we strongly condemn the terrorism that occurred last weekend against the minnesota mosque. i'm deeply saddened to see president trump not address it so far. i hope the muslim community would step up its outreach efforts to the white house if we want to see a strong response coming from there. we can't be on the receiving end or play the victim games. we have to be proactive and must engage with the white house. >> i don't know what we can do to reach out to donald trump. the man who demonized us during the campaign saying that islam hates us, thousands of muslims cheering in new jersey on 9/11, rudy giuliani said that wasn't true. >> dean, people change their views. >> here's what i said. if donald trump wanted to reach out to the communities that he demonized during this campaign from latinos to us to the disabled to women, go out and meet them. invite them to the white house. i'm a muslim guy

, believing it could lead to muslims being further stigmatized. it was in part thanks to marek halter that it went ahead anyway. the french-jewish writer has worked for decades to promote understanding between jews and muslims. >> maybe they needed my strength and energy. i always believed right from the start that it was possible to get something like this off the ground. >> possible, but not without risk. hassan chalghoumi, from the paris suburb of drancy, has been under police protection for years. salafist extremists have pledged to murder him. the police were once again out in force as the group arrived at the scene of last year's attack in berlin. drouiche is also worried about becoming a target for extremists. but he's committed to the cause. he laid flowers for the victims of the attack, including victims of other faiths. drouiche says there are texts in islam that call the faithful to commit acts of violence. but he believes it's important to understand them in their historical context. >> we muslims need to take responsibility. and we ne
