Cosmopolitan Uses Image of Sikh Man in Tweet About Muslims

Tuesday, Cosmopolitan magazine’s official account, tweeted an image of a Sikh man offering free cab rides with the caption, “Muslim Taxi Drivers Took Kids Trying to Escape the Manchester Ariana Grande Concert Home for Free.” Which is great if they’d used a pic of a Muslim cab driver, alas…

The Sikh Press Association was understandably unhappy:


Cosmo later deleted the tweet. At the time this post was published, the Cosmo post, which focused entirely on the kindness of Muslim cab drivers, still used the picture of a Sikh man as its featured image.

Sikh, what does it mean?
