CINCINNATI: During a time when every minority remains unsure of what the future holds for them, a Muslim family from Cincinnati were pleasantly surprised to receive a note of positivity. The handwritten, unsigned letter read, "Today begins a new stage for our country. No matter what happens, please know there are still a lot of people who will fight for your right to practice your religion, to continue to live your lives without discrimination."

A picture of the note which was received right after Trump's inauguration, was shared on micro-blogging site Twitter, by the home owner's niece Hend Amry. "This is the America that took us in as political refugees, the America that gave us a new home, & the America that keeps my hope alive today." Her tweet garnered a lot of reaction, including 60,000 likes and dozens of comments.
