#JamaicaGleaner SEPTEMBER 15, 2021: Twenty years after the 9/11 terrorism attack in the United States, some Muslims living in Jamaica say Islamophobia still haunts them, but primarily overseas when they travel. According to Taariq Abdul-Majeed, Public Relations Officer and Media Liaison for the Islamic Council of Jamaica, the community of Muslims living in Jamaica feels safe in the island, however, when they attempt to leave, they worry about how they will be treated and accepted in some foreign nations.
