The historic consensual adoption of the OIC sponsored UN Human Rights Council Resolution 16/18 entitled “Combating Intolerance, Negative Stereotyping and Stigmatization of, and Discrimination, Incitement to violence, and Violence against persons based on Religion or Belief” on March 21, 2011 as well in the subsequent sessions of the Council and the UN General Assembly, has effectively broken the myth of the global community’s inability to take a unified and determined stand to combat intolerance and hatred based on religion and belief.

In order to combat Islamophobia and foster tolerance and mutual understanding based on international human rights standards, States, international organizations and non-state actors should [] Take all necessary measures within their power and legal/jurisdictional systems to ensure a safe environment (page 33)

UNHRC Resolution 16/18 is the OIC’s vehicle to criminalize “Islamophobia”
In 2015 Obama’s “Task Force on 21st Century Policing” issued their Final Report (http://www.cops.usdoj.gov/pdf/taskforce/TaskForce_FinalReport.pdf) and accompanying Implementation Guide (http://www.cops.usdoj.gov/pdf/taskforce/Implementation_Guide.pdf)
On page 72 of the Final Report it is noted that Deray McKesson and Black Lives Matter, both participated.
In his written testimony (http://www.cops.usdoj.gov/pdf/taskforce/submissions/McKesson_DeRay_Testimony.pdf) McKesson complains that “police brutality is not a coincidental aspect of American life, but that it is deeply woven into the fabric of American policing and that it falls heavily along the lines of race.” He says that he began protesting in Ferguson, Missouri, and that “I, like many others, have been tear gassed repeatedly, have had ‘non-lethal’ weapons pointed at me by officers, have been told that it was illegal to stand still on an American street, and have been pepper sprayed – all for engaging in peaceful protest.” (Who can forget the rioting, looting, and arson, in Ferguson?) He continues, “it is necessary for the Department of Justice, in conjunction with community organizations and local law enforcement, to develop virtual and in-person training modules whose use is mandatory by all police departments receiving federal funding that focuses on implicit bias” and “Twitter and other social media tools were pivotal to the protest community”
On page 28 of the Final Report it is noted that Linda Sarsour of the National Network for Arab American Communities participated. In her written testimony (http://www.cops.usdoj.gov/pdf/taskforce/submissions/Sarsour_Linda_Testimony.pdf) she complains about “Islamophobia”. Sarsour states that police are perceived as biased, she recommends that police training curriculum include input from “community-based organizations” and “faith based leaders” and training be subject to ongoing monitoring by these groups. She also recommends that the DOJ establish a “civilian review board” composed of these groups “that can provide suggestions on what the DOJ mandates on those departments so they can be compliant with civil rights”
On page 20 of the Implementation Guide officer training is listed as a key tool to drive change. Training must address “implicit bias”, “engage the community in training” and “include community members as trainers”.
On page 16 of the Implementation Guide, “The final report and its recommendations can be an effective template for law enforcement organizations and communities to measure progress against a national, objective set of recommendations.” Also: Create a checklist using the recommendations, use the checklist in local government, law enforcement, and community meetings as a management tool to drive implementation, provide regular updates to the community and local government on progress being made on implementing specific recommendations
On page 23 of the Implementation Guide: State legislatures - Review and mandate requirements for police state training academies for basic recruit and in-service hours and content in light of the task force recommendations.
Additionally agencies are required to admit previous injustices. This “shaming” is psychological manipulation.
The Final Report list numerous recommendations including: federal training standards, numerous reports to be filed with federal government (police demographics, “community” demographics, arrestee demographics, incidents reports, for example).
