Title: Religious and Cultural Drivers of Islamophobia
Abstract: This chapter addresses the relationship between Islamophobia and its religious and cultural drivers in North America. Religious and cultural drivers of Islamophobia, particularly those pertaining to far-right and conservative faith groups such as evangelical Protestants who are particularly vocal in expressing anti-Muslim rhetoric, are in violation of freedom of religion, freedom of expression, human rights, and the spirit of a marketplace of ideas. Extreme religiosity, prejudice, intolerance, and ignorance of Islam and Muslim cultures are core elements of the religious and cultural drivers of Islamophobia in North America.
