By Victoria Cavaliere New York 14 August 2008 |
Advertisements promoting Islam will be placed in New York City subway cars for one month beginning in September. Victoria Cavaliere reports from VOA’s New York Bureau that the organizers of the ad campaign say they hope the ads will clarify some misunderstandings about the Muslim religion.
The subway ad campaign, sponsored by the Islamic Circle of North America, will roll out on September 15 in 1,000 subway cars through out New York City’s subway system.
