The Overlooked Problem of Pakistani Racism.
How often have we heard Pakistani, Indian or Arab Muslims tell us ‘reverts’ how utopian their society is and talk down to us when we identify their racism against whites, blacks, each other and even their own people!
Never mind that if one goes to any of their countries you can see it plain as the sun! Here is an article written by a Pakistani. Oh, and since many Southasians that I have known (and who may be reading this) worship status, this Pakistani writer is a PhD at Duke University. Status worship is another thread however!

About Islam Factor
Islam Factor is an Islamic multifaith forum which was founded as a bold experiement in Muslim freedom of expression, freedom of speech and cooperation with people from all walks of life. Some who follow, agree with or are amacable to Islam and some who are opposed. Whether we agree with or follow Islam or not, whether we oppose Islam or not, no matter the nation, race religion or creed we are from, we all have one thing in common. We all are human-beings with the same basic needs, hopes and emotions.
Our forum hopes to promote an almost unheard of tolerance (that eludes many Muslim groups) that transcends all of our differences while discussing the critical issues that divide us as human-beings. Issues involving Islam on all levels (inside and outside of the Islamic community) will be discussed on our forum openly and unhindered. This forum will be a mode communication that allows for dissention and encourages methods to overcome the critical problems that concern us all.
Join us today!
We are different than any Islamic or religious forum on the net. Although we have rules like all forums do, we allow for the freedom to express opposing ideas from external individuals (non-Muslims) and from Muslims themselves. Dissention is the key to proper checks and balances within a community and criticism from outside is key to self examination and bettering ourselves as a community and as human-beings in general.
Muslims, Christians, Jews, Atheists, all human beings are valued on our forum for membership and leadership roles! We want to hear your voice!
We hope you will enjoy your experience here. Please tell others to come, join and freely express their opinions on Islam Factor!
Join us today!
