Should the minority be responsible for speaking out against prejudice, or should the majority be responsible to listen up?

Many people still believe that moderate Muslims should speak out against terrorism. The problem is, they do…and are frustrated when they keep getting told that they’re not doing it.

Other minority groups also are associated with “fringe” groups, even after decades of work – for instance, certain interests attempt to link homosexuality to pedophelia, even though much of the LGBT population thought they were clear of that association.

However, some argue that it is the responsibility of those in the minority to constantly disassociate themselves from fringe groups. Considering the multiple concerns minority groups need to address, is it their responsibility to dispel these myths, or should the responsibility belong to those who hold these ideas to determine if they’re accurate?
