Exposing the Advance of Islam
in Our Public Schools

How ACT! for America Chapters
and Members Are Making a Difference

What do you think would happen if students in your local public middle school brought home a word puzzle that, when solved, spelled out the following?

"There is no Savior but Jesus Christ."

There would be outrage from the ACLU. Some angry parents would protest. There might be threats of a lawsuit. After all, no child in a public school today brings home any puzzles that exalt one religious belief over another.

Or do they?

Thanks to our growing network of local chapters and members, recently we were apprised of a series of pro-Islamic activities taking place in some California public schools. Click on the first link below and you will see a word puzzle brought home by some children who attend an intermediate school in Corona, California.

Now click on the following link and note that the circled letters spell out the phrase "There is no god but Allah." This is what students saw after completing the puzzle. Some parents complained, and it's our understanding the principal checked into it and this no longer happens.

7th graders at the same school brought home drawings depicting the five pillars of Islam. To see one of the drawings, click below.

Some children in an elementary school in Chino Hills, California, sang songs celebrating Ramadan along side songs celebrating Thanksgiving. To see the song lyrics, click on the link below.

In another instance, a California high school proclaimed "Islamic Awareness Week." But when a parent complained, the principal pulled the plug on this program.

These examples raise some very disturbing questions. Why is Islam being taught and celebrated in some of our public schools in a way that other religions, such as Christianity and Judaism, aren't? Why are songs about Islam being sung during the Islamic holiday Ramadan, while public schools routinely prohibit the singing of Christmas carols and have replaced "Christmas break" with "winter break"? Why would a school proclaim "Islamic Awareness Week" when it is unheard of for a school to proclaim "Christian Awareness Week" or "Jewish Awareness Week"?

One community leader put it this way: "Our public schools have been blitzed by Muslims demanding Ramadan songs to be sung in classes and requiring the schools to allow them to introduce "the benefits of Islam" hand-outs to all the students (based upon their constitutional rights and equal access)."

Such efforts demanding special treatment of Islam will succeed if we do not act. The good news is we can make a difference when we stand up against efforts in public schools to provide special treatment of Islam -- and stand up we must. That's why one of the recommended projects for ACT! for America chapters is to review textbooks and curricula in their local schools and take action when necessary, to ensure that Islam is not receiving special or biased treatment. Had it not been for the existence of a local ACT! for America chapter and several ACT! for America members, we might not have learned about what was going on in these California public schools!

Why? Because you won't read about incidents like these in your local paper. You won't see it on your TV news. And as ACT! for America chapters are started in more and more communities, our ability to detect and expose incidents like these will increase dramatically - and with it our ability to take action!

That's also why we send out emails like this. It's our hope that you not only read these, but that you'll forward them on to everyone on your email address list. A simple way to do that is to click on the link at the very bottom of this page, titled "How can I tell others about your organization?" By doing this you share this email with people you know and at the same time introduce them to ACT! for America.

And if you'd like to help support our efforts to educate concerned citizens across America as to how to detect and respond to pro-Islamic activities in our public schools, please click here.

Thank you!
