My solution for this Religious discrimination is to gather stories from Muslims, Christians, and Jews, get their stories about when and how they were discriminated and how they felt afterwards.
Another solution is this site, by making this website it can show everyone what some of these minorities go through.
Lukas
I have one Jewish friend named Lukas, I've been knowing him since kindergarten and decided to ask him a few questions about his religion and what things might offend him. I asked him has he been discriminated against because he was Jewish and he says he has. However, you can't just look at a person and tell that they're Jewish you would most likely have to ask them what their religion is. Lukas talks about how in school if he's eating a Slim Jim kids will ask him "Is that Kosher meat?" or "Are you suppose to be eating that?" He doesn't really get offended but annoyed most of the time. Another situation is when he's in class and there is a movie or an activity on the Holocaust, some kids will ask Lukas if he's offended and he'll say no because it's just apart of World History. The one time he was very offended was in 7th grade when we had to watch the 2008 movie The Boy in Striped Pajamas. This movie was offensive because at the end the Christian boy dies and the Jewish boy lives, but the story is sad because everyone's just sad about the Christian boys' death and no one really cares that the Jewish boy lived. Jewish people just want the same treatment as other people get in certain situations.
Ikran
I have a Muslim friend named Ikran. I actually met her this year at Roosevelt and she's very passionate about her religion. She says that she has been criticized about wearing her hijab. People will ask her why she's always wearing it and how come she never takes it off, some people even went as far as saying that her hair is ugly that's why she keeps it on. Ikran found that very offensive because they don't know anything about her religion and still judge her or say things about her. A lot of people think that all Muslims are terrorist when that isn't true at all. Since 9/11 the Nation of Islam has been heavily discriminated because of the extremist Muslims that somewhat follow the Nation of Islam but have their own beliefs as well. My grandparents are actually Muslim, my family isn't but my mom has read the Quran and has understood what was written in it. People should understand that just because a few Muslims have done bad things not all Muslims are bad, they're actually peaceful people that should be treated just like someone who is Christian, Buddhist, etc.
Christians
I have many Christian friends, I've actually been to Christian churches. But the discrimination against Christians isn't in the U.S. it's happening in the Middle East. Currently, the Middle East has a low population of Christianity and has a medium-high population of Muslims or extremist. There have been churches that have been burned, people have been attacked and terrorized because of their religion. In the part of the world, Christianity is the minority whereas in the U.S. it's one of the most popular religions. Christians in the Middle East were born there but were probably raised in a different environment where their family read the Bible instead of the Quran. Arab Christians just wanted to be treated equal to anyone else that live in their country or town. Since they live in the Middle East people feel like they should just automatically be Muslim when in some cases it isn't like that at all. Even though on the other side of the world they're a minority, Christians should be treated equally to everyone else.
