"Today, with the presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and others like him spewing hate speech, prejudice is reaching new levels," he wrote. "It's visceral, and scary, and it affects how people live, work and pray."
Ansari is particularly scathing when it comes to Trump's oft-repeated conjecture that Muslims in New Jersey celebrated in the streets after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, and shared his own experience on that tragic day.
