On November 22, 2022 By MPAC
After the attacks of September 11, 2001, there was a sharp rise in anti-Muslim sentiment that resulted in hate crimes and assaults against American Muslims and those incorrectly perceived to be Muslim, including Sikhs, Hindus and others. MPAC went to Capitol Hill to push for House Resolution 662 to pass through Congress, a bill that honors the victims of those hate crimes. ---------- Subscribe to MPAC's channel: http://bit.ly/MPACYouTube Like MPAC on Facebook: http://fb.com/mpacnational Follow MPAC on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mpac_national Follow MPAC on Instagram: http://instagram.com/mpac_national Visit MPAC's website: http://mpac.org About the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) We improve public understanding and policies that impact American Muslims by engaging our government, media, and communities.

MPAC Hosts Congressional Briefing on Post-911 Hate-Fueled Attacks on Minorities

Videos
On November 21, 2022 By MPAC
MPAC hosted a briefing on Capitol Hill advocating for Congress to pass House Resolution 662. In the weeks following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, nine Americans, some Muslim, and others perceived to be Muslim, lost their lives due to hate-fueled attacks. Countless other hate crime victims have continued to be targeted in the aftermath of 9/11. House Resolution 662 honors these victims. The briefing was attended by congressional staffers and our civil society partners, and moderated by the Reverend Paul Brandeis Raushenbush, President and CEO of Interfaith Alliance. The moving discussion included impact statements from the widows of Balbir Singh Sodhi and Waqar Hasan, two of the victims of these hate-fueled attacks, which moved the audience to tears and Rais Bhuiyan, founder of World Without Hate. ---------- Subscribe to MPAC's channel: http://bit.ly/MPACYouTube Like MPAC on Facebook: http://fb.com/mpacnational Follow MPAC on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mpac_national Follow MPAC on Instagram: http://instagram.com/mpac_national Visit MPAC's website: http://mpac.org About the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) We improve public understanding and policies that impact American Muslims by engaging our government, media, and communities.
