Refugees are here for opportunity | Sami Elmansoury on Channel 4

On November 3, 2017 By MPAC

MPAC's Sami Elmansoury from our New York City steering committee joined Channel 4 News following the terrorist attack in Manhattan. He spoke about the importance of recognizing that Muslims who come to this country as refugees are here to give back to a country that took them in. We should not focus on certain individuals and certain countries when it comes to immigration policies. Instead of isolating certain people, we should be more unified.

It’s been a busy couple of weeks for us. From organizing a legal symposium about legal threats facing our community at the UC Irvine School of Law and a policy forum on blasphemy and religious freedom at the Newseum, to collective action on the Muslim Ban and discussing guidelines on religious freedom with the Department of Justice, we brought people, communities, and organizations together to discuss how we can improve policies affecting American Muslims. came together last week to amplify the voices of all vulnerable communities asking for awareness and accountability in protecting our civic rights under this administration. If you haven’t been active yet, our 2017 Convention on Sunday, November 5th will empower you to move from spectator to participant in the fight for our democracy. Learn more mpac.org/convention
