Phillies Fan Used In Muslim Rights Ad

A new online video by a Muslim-American group promoting tolerance features a man wearing a Phillies T-shirt.

The group My Faith My Voice said it is a grassroots effort to help people understand that many Americans are Muslims and not all Muslims are terrorists.

The video shows an array of multicultural speakers saying Muslims have not been portrayed accurately in the American media and culture, in the wake of the Ground Zero mosque controversy.

"In recent weeks, a lot people have been telling you what to think about Muslims. They say you should fear me, suspect me, hate me. But the truth is I don't want to impose my faith on you, I don't want to take over this country, and I don't support terrorism," the ad starts.

At one point, it shows a young man in the Phillies T-shirt. Only two of the people in the ad are wearing any kind of commercial clothing: the man in the Phillies shirt and another wearing a soccer jersey.

CNN says Hassan Ahmad, an immigration attorney who is part of the group, told reporters at a Monday press conference the group is funded by individuals and hopes to raise enough money to run the public-service announcement on TV.

The group "is an independent network with no affiliation to any one organization or school of thought," but aside from Ahmad's remark, there is little known about its funding.

The ad is also currently posted on YouTube.
