Heres one for you, Dale Marshall. Please share it with your wife. Ask her if she knows what Moslems call African Americans. This young woman explains.. Once, while in class at college, an Arab girl I was sitting next to said quite loudly to another, “Hey, give this paper to the abdah” referring to a black girl in the class. I wondered if she was even aware of what she was saying in English. Did she think that abdah translates to “black girl” and never thought of its true meaning? Did she think that I didnt understand? Clearly, if she had said “Give this paper to the slave” it would have been a revocable remark, and a confrontation may have ensued. Not only was this term used with blatant disregard, it was furthermore tolerated by the likes of me, who cringed at its use, though I kept quiet. I remember angrily thinking, “Arent we all abeed (slaves) of Allah?” muslimmatters.org/2012/11/22/we-are-all-slaves-of-allah/
