It is a sad sign of the times when someone has to create an illustrated guide to teach passersby how to help victims of Islamophobic harassment. But due to increased pressure on the Islamic community in France following a series of recent tragic terrorist attacks in the country, a Paris-based illustrator who goes by the name of Maeril decided to create this helpful guide to encourage people to help Muslims unjustly targeted because of their faith.

“I am focused on protecting Muslims here,” Maeril writes on his Tumblr page. “As they have been very specific targets lately, and as a French woman from the Middle East, I wanted to try to do something to raise awareness about how to help when things like this happen in front of our eyes; this way, no one can say ‘I didn’t know what to do’.” Scroll down to see what you can do to help.
