I have been talking with a producer of the NBC Dateline show and he is in the process of filming a piece on anti-Muslim and anti-Arab discrimination in the USA. They are looking for some Muslim male candidates for their show who would be willing to go to non-Muslim gatherings and see if they attract any discriminatory comments or actions while being filmed.
They recently taped two turbaned Sikh men attending a football game in Arizona to see how people would treat them. They set them up with hidden microphones and cameras, etc.
They want to do the same thing 2 or 3 other times (in various parts of the USA) with one or two Muslim men in each setting. They are looking for men who actually “look Muslim”. They want a guy with no foreign accent whatsoever, a good thick beard, an outgoing personality, and someone willing to wear a kufi/skullcap during the filming.
They also want someone who is fairly well accomplished and has contributed to American society at large in some meaningful way.
I would love to recruit some Manhattan elites to wear hidden cameras and attend a few dinner parties to record the bigotry and hatred of Republicans from members of the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN and the big three networks. That would be eye opening.
Yes, I have been to a NASCAR race. The group I went with were mostly professional people with more disposable income than I will ever have, but NASCAR draws all types. Finding a drunken redneck at a NASCAR race isn't to hard, but so what? That redneck is not writing or producing the news most of American watches. The real danger to our nation is not Bubba, its Katie Couric becoming the next evening news anchor at CBS.
I'll see your drunk redneck and raise you a liberal dimwit.
