Muslims fleeing Central African Republic

Much like the discrimination of Muslims plaguing America, Africa has it's own share. In the Central African Republic, thousands of Muslims are being forced to flee their homeland in search of safe refuge according to an article titled "Violence Against Muslims in Central African Republic Forces Thousands to Flee." Author Fredrick Nzwili discusses a pro-Christian group called anti-balaka that has tortured, mutilated, and murdered refugees as they attempt to flee. Compare this to what is currently happening in American culture and we see stark similarities. Hopefully the African governments can stop these atrocities before war breaks out.
