- The Irish Senate passed a bill to boycott Israeli settlement products last week (thank you Senator @frances_black for introducing it). Watch this exceptionally candid and courageous debate that led to the bill's adoption:
- Want to know why this "ultimate deal" is a sham & a disgrace that will never lead to peace? @OmarBaddar explains: #DealOfTheCentury #Apartheid
00:00 - In this heated exchange, @OmarBaddar challenges the smear campaign targeting @IlhanMN, & explains how it's really about shutting down the debate on US enablement of Israeli crimes against the Palestinians (Full video here: youtu.be/VoorYXwKwcQ)
00:00 - “1st Amendment Looks Beautiful in Any Language” buff.ly/2p24hHL @ACLU campaign promotes free speech in Spanish/English/Arabic

- Excluding Omar Barghouti's voice by barring his entry into the US is a travesty of justice that will deny Americans a greater understanding of a pressing human rights issue. Do something about it! Sign our petition in partnership with @jvplive: secure.everyaction.com/qE_Z473r60-pFe…?

00:00 - Thank you Rep. @RashidaTlaib for asking the #Census Bureau Director Dillingham about why the #MENA category was abandoned by OMB in 2018. Though the #2020Census will not have a #MENA category, we will make sure we're counted & not erased this Census! #YallaCountMeIn ✊
00:00 - Congresswoman @RashidaTlaib is in the House! (pun intended). Her advice for Arab Americans on the Hill today: be unapologetically yourself. #ArabAmericansLead
- Mayor Bloomberg was finally asked about NYPD surveillance of the Arab & Muslim communities. His answer betrays systemic anti-Arab & anti-Muslim sentiment and has no place in credible policy discussions. Read our statement here: aaiusa.org/aai_statement_…
- Criticism of Israel is not anti-Semitism -- Stand up to those who want to silence voices that humanize Palestinians!
00:00 - "Change is coming. Those who have been able to use pressure to silence debate on Israeli behaviors and Palestinian rights need to learn that continuing to do so will not silence voices of dissent, they will only make them stronger."- @jjz1600 #Palestine aaiusa.org/game_over
