Talking back to hate

New campaign seeks to counter anti-Muslim ads in New York City.

UPDATE: The citizen-led campaign Talk Back to Hate will successfully launch their first ad in 10 New York subway stations this week. The necessary funds to post the ad came from 200 contributors. Those who gave $25 or more were able to submit their ideas for the poster, and contributors voted on the final design. The names of the contributors are displayed in the background of the ad, which is shown below.
