In this special episode we share a story from Invisible Hate. Hosts Asad Butt and Saadia Khan explore one of the most egregious acts of Islamophobia and murder to occur in North America in recent years and shed light on the tragic impact of the rise in hate crimes on minority communities and the underreporting and underprosecution of these crimes. In June 2021, three generations of the Afzaal family went on a stroll after dinner only to be senselessly murdered by a 21-year-old driver in a pickup truck. We investigate the story and how this senseless act of violence happened.
