Building Beloved Community 4/11/24

Month By Month

In 2022 President Joe Biden issued a proclamation designating April as Arab-American Heritage Month, a culmination of many years of work by volunteers in the Arab-American community. It is an opportunity to highlight the numerous contributions to our culture by United States citizens from 22 diverse Arabic-speaking countries. Moreover, it is an occasion to confront the bias, discrimination, and violence endured by many of the 3.5 million Americans of Arab descent, particularly in the aftermath of 9/11.
