One Muslim man has ventured into Republic Square in France’s capital in a show of faith with fellow Parisian mourners.
The guy blindfolded himself and stood with a placard which (roughly translated) asks: ‘I’m a Muslim and I’m told I’m a terrorist. I trust you, do you trust me? If yes, hug me?
As a tearful crowd of mourners look on, one by one, Parisians approach the man and embrace him.
Feeling the unity, one person commented on the video: ‘My deepest empathy goes to the families of the victims. Unbelievable how people tend to generalise. I am Muslim and was born and raised in Europe. Does the fact that I am Muslim automatically makes me a terrorist?
