9:00Now Playing"DC Today" host Del Walters talks to the deputy director of the Council on American Islamic Relations, Edward Ahmed Mitchell, about what it's like being Black and Muslim post- 9/11.
Following the events of 9/11, anti-Muslim sentiments spread throughout the country, with many Muslims facing violence because of their faith.
"There's only one Islam and it's all light," Mitchell says. "Al Qaeda's behavior does not represent any side of Islam, any more than the KKK's behavior represents a side of Christianity."
All this and more on “DC Today.”
