World Needs More Data on Muslims

Re “Southland Muslims Take a PR Approach,” Feb. 1:

Thank you for publishing the article about California Muslims renting billboard space with public service announcements about Islam. It is imperative that Americans learn about Islam and its message of peace. The Muslims of Southern California are doing a wonderful job with their campaign by presenting Muslims for what they are--peaceful, law-abiding citizens of the United States. Please continue to write positive articles about Islam and Muslims so that all Americans, regardless of race, religion, or ethnicity, can live peacefully together.
