Scrounging around on the internet, I stumbled upon a particularly interesting article authored by Rumana Ahmed on The Atlantic. Day eight and she decided to call it quits on moral grounds, over Trump’s contentious executive order banning the entry of citizens from seven Muslim majority nations. So, even as we praise Muslim-Americans uniting to raise money to repair vandalised Jewish cemetery, we fail to learn the right lessons. For ethical enlightenment cannot be measured by government action, which, when too intoxicated with power, seldom practices any refrain. Rather, it is gauged by the portion of the populace who are concerned enough to take a moral stand for the oppressed, the misunderstood, the outcast, the disenfranchised.
