Boycott ADC Until Regime Change

ADC’s leadership is as corrupt and autocratic as your run of the mill Arab regime; with the significance as a governing body that rivals the government of Djibouti, and a record of accomplishments that falls short of Qaddafi’s.

The ADC Regime

Arab-Americans deserve better and we start asserting ourselves through our dissent of the ADC’s actions and a unified indignation for its leadership.

Each one of us plays their role in history.

The ADC Challenge

There is a lot wrong with ADC, but there is a lot right. It is worth saving. I challenge everyone angry about the Malek Jandali affair to take ownership of ADC and fix it. Boycott is not the answer.

It proved short-lived, but also points to the need for us to get better organized in Washington, DC..

Why Are Arab And Muslim Organizations So Quick To Condemn?

It almost seems appropriate that since I’m a Palestinian-American Muslim from Northern Virginia who also happens to be from the same hometown in Palestine (El-Bireh) as Ft.

The Minority Position on Bill Clinton’s ADC Address

One of the most notable features of this year’s American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee’s annual convention in Washington, DC was the appearance of ex-President Bill Clinton.
