I wonder if they include Nation of Islam in this analysis. They're not even actual Muslims, so I don't think they should count. And I believe there are more South Asian Muslims in the US than Arab Muslims so I fail to see how "Arab privilege" is a big issue.

Still, an interesting discussion to have I'm sure.

What is it like to be black and Muslim? In the US many online have been reflecting on their experiences using #BeingBlackAndMuslim. Followers of the faith say even though racism is condemned in Islam, it exists within the community. They say “Arab privilege” is part of the problem. On the next Stream we’ll discuss some of the challenges faced by black Muslims. Join us at 19:30 GMT.

I can say that being here, I don't experience much issues with it. But we're not around a lot of muslims like us so...
