<p>Activist Linda Sarsour came under fire on Wednesday for posting an appeal to donate to a PAC under the guise of Hurricane Harvey relief. Sarsour tweeted a link to the &quot;Harvey Hurricane Relief Fund,&quot; which, upon further investigation, isn&#39;t actually a relief fund at all.&nbsp;</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Donate to the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Harvey?src=hash">#Harvey</a> Hurricane Relief Fund. <a href="https://t.co/nkFbwgGWDH">https://t.co/nkFbwgGWDH</a></p>&mdash; Linda Sarsour (@lsarsour) <a href="https://twitter.com/lsarsour/status/902391077046452224">August 29, 2017</a></blockquote><script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><p>This is the organization:</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Rebuilding in areas impacted by <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HurricaneHarvey?src=hash">#HurricaneHarvey</a> will be most challenging for marginalized communities.
