Vigil conducted as a tribute to hate crime victim Wadea Al-Fayoume

Over a thousand people packed into a gymnasium in Illinois to honour the life of the six-year-old Wadea Al-Fayoume who was stabbed along with his mother by their 71-year-old landlord because of their Muslim identity. A number of community vigils were held in honour of the slain child and many attendees were non-muslims, take a look.
