Mission

Muslim Justice League (MJL)’s mission is to educate, organize, and advocate for communities whose rights are threatened under national security pretexts. MJL was founded on the principles that discrimination towards any group endangers the rights of all and that Muslim advocacy is an essential force for promoting justice. We focus on community organizing and facilitation of cross-movement solidarity.

MJL was formed by four Muslim women in response to the pressing need for local Muslim-led defense of our communities’ human and civil rights against the “War on Terror.”

The antagonist to surveillance is not privacy, it is community.
