> Santa Clara, 11/29/05. The San Francisco Bay Area chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-SFBA) is urging the Bay Area community to take action by contacting the Santa Clara District Attorney to drop charges against the arrested Muslim De Anza students.
>
>Muslim students were arrested on November 11, 2005 for protesting former Secretary of State Colin Powell's appearance at DeAnza Community College in Cupertino. The arrests seem to have been motivated by religious and racial profiling as six were visibly dressed Muslim students and one was an African American graduate student. The arrests were brutal and many were beaten by the police. [More]
