Basically this is a video made by one of the news stations to act out discrimination within the U.S and see what the general public would do. Some people don't care, enjoy the fact that they are discriminating against them and some get really angry that they are doing it. The first person they view is happy that the man behind the counter is not allowing the Muslim woman to buy from his store. Then as it goes along there are people that don't care/ are not affected. But we soon see a few woman and men that get really upset about them acting against the Muslim woman and speak up against the man behind the counter. But all in all it is a good example of prejudice and racism against Muslims within the United States.

I believe its increased because many people blame the religion itself rather then the people that caused the attack. We need to remember that radical Islam is no longer just a religion, its political as well. Many people feel that the Muslims cause all of these problems we have with terrorists, and the entire U.S was astonished when they attacked the twin towers. So now people feel that its okay to treat anyone who is Muslim, like they are worthless and stuff like that, and its truly wrong.

I believe the only true way to reduce prejudice is to put the other people in their shoes. Make a law against racism and prejudice, and let the sentence be live the other persons life for 30 days like they did in the movie. So long as prejudice, hatred, racism are allowed, people will continue to act upon it towards Muslims. But if they were to live as a Muslim, in the other persons shoes for a period of time, they will begin to understand about the Muslims and why it is wrong to discriminate against them for no reason at all.
