Case Study: Advocating Against Islamophobia - The Fortinos Incident
This case study highlights the critical role of advocacy in addressing Islamophobia and systemic inaction. It details the swift intervention of the Muslim Advisory Council of Canada (MACC) in support of a Muslim woman harassed at a Fortinos in Burlington, Ontario. By advocating for institutional accountability, securing evidence, and collaborating with law enforcement, MACC ensured justice for the victim while fostering awareness and education to combat hate. This case underscores the persistent challenges faced by visibly Muslim women and the importance of community-driven efforts to create safer, more inclusive spaces.
