Debate: Chapel Hill shootings

Debate: Chapel Hill shootings

The recent killing of three Muslim students in the US has shaken the Muslim community in the country.

More than 5,500 people gathered on Thursday afternoon on a soccer field for the funeral of Shaddy Barakat, 23, his wife Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha, 21, and her sister, Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, 19, near the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill campus.

This is while the US media outlets are being criticized for failing to fully cover the murder and its subsequent developments.

In this edition of the Debate, we ask our guests whether the Chapel Hill shootings can be a turning point in how the US deals with Islamophobia.

Press TV's guests Dr. Kevin Barrett, a founding member of the Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth from Madison, and Maxine Dovere, a reporter based in New York, will comment on the issue.
