We would like to extend our sincere apologies for unintentionally covering a mural honoring Tom Petty on the 34th Street. The wall in question is known for hosting rotating artwork, which led us to believe it was open for any and all expressions. Unfortunately, we were unaware of the mural's importance and inadvertently covered it with a message promoting our Fast-a-Thon event. It is important for us to make clear that this incident has nothing to do with religion or any form of hate. We are committed to fostering an environment of respect and unity within our Gainesville community, and we apologize for any misunderstandings that may have arisen. On that note, Islamophobia has no place in this community and it is upsetting to see this incident incite so much hate across multiple platforms. The inadvertent actions of a student organization should not ever be a reflection on a religion and its values.
Sincerely,
Islam on Campus at UF
