How many Muslims - or non-Muslims- regularly get on any of the alternative media, or read books that question the veracity of those in power, the government, corporate media, etc., vs getting all their ideas from places like fox News, and believing bull like 911 was done by 19 box cutter using Arabs, Al Queada is real, they hate us for our freedoms, etc.

Some examples of the Alternative Media, books, etc. might be the following:

www.whatreallyhappened. com - of course
www.democracynow.org
www.ifamericansknew.org
www.palestineremembered.com
www.linktv.org
www.wrmea.com
www.newtrendmag.org
www.gunsandbutter.net
www.freespeech.org
www.alternativeradio.org
www.billmoyers.com
www.Rys2Sense.com (Ryan Dawson)
www.rt.com
www.pbs.org (Point of View)


Authors like:
John Perkins
Enver Masud
Noam Chomsky
Naome Klein
Chris Hedges
Norman Soloman
David Ray Griffith
Arundhati Roy
Susan George
Pamela Yates
Seymour Hersh
Howard Zinn
Cornell West
Edward Said
Naome Wolf
John Pilgers
Sibel Edmonds
John Macarthur
Michael Parenti
etc.
Any others I missed?

How about supporting organizations like the ACLU, Council on American Islamic Relations, American-Arab Anti Discrimination Committee, etc.

Just wanted to add the book "Days of destruction days of revolt", Netflix has videos on Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky, also "Inequality for All" was good, as was "The End of Poverty" and "Surviving Democracy".
