Headline - FEATURE-US Muslims seek alternatives to American products

Seems to imply a boycott. The following was a statement in the article.

"They're trading with their own people, but not boycotting American shops because of anything that has happened," Alawan said.

The article seemed to say that some American items, such as Barbie dolls, didn't reflect Muslim beliefs, and they found alternatives for their children. Seems reasonable.

What was surprising was the below statement.

“But while American Muslims, which are projected to number 50 million by mid-century, may represent a niche market, they are far from monolithic, marketing experts said.”
