We celebrate the repeal of the travel ban and appl We celebrate the repeal of the travel ban and applaud 👏🏾 efforts by our alumni, such as @wardahkhalid_, who worked tirelessly for its repeal! And we encourage young American Muslim scholars to join their pursuit of justice! ➡️ SWIPE to learn more about our paid Congressional Internship Program, which offers the rare experience to work with Congressional staffers and learn about the legislative process. This summer’s internship will be remote, and interns will receive a monthly stipend of $1,000. We know the work doesn’t end with a new administration. If you’re passionate about creating a world where race and religion are no longer barriers to equity and equality, 💥APPLY NOW💥 through Jan. 31st.   “[Yesterday’s] victory is for all the advocates, lawyers, policy makers, and regular Americans who never gave up trying to reunite these families. It will take years to heal from the trauma this ban caused and many months to process existing and new visa applications. And we still need to pass the NO BAN Act into law to prevent future bans based on religion or ethnicity from being enacted. But today, let’s take a moment to celebrate this victory. We deserve it.” – Wardah Khalid #RepealTheBan #NoMuslimBan #NoMuslimBanEver #NoTravelBan #JusticeForAll #EqualityForAll #IncreasingRepresentation #AmplifyingTheMuslimVoice

Representation matters. ✊🏾✊🏽✊🏿✊🏼 That’s why our programs seek to place American Muslims in positions of power in policy, media, law, and more. But we know the advancement of American Muslims must parallel the advancement of other marginalized populations. We’re dedicated to representation, but with principle. Our inclusion cannot be based on our compromised humanity or on the backs of other communities. 🎨: @hisueyun #RepresentationMatters #RepresentationWithPrinciple #AntiRacism #AntiRacist

Our response to Wednesday's events at the Capitol: Our response to Wednesday's events at the Capitol: "We all watched in horror as what happened on Capitol Hill unfolded in real time. It was shocking, yet not completely surprising for those of us who have been the target of white supremacy since this country’s founding. As we have been reminded over and over again this past year and decades prior, the importance of our work cannot be understated. Diversifying voices in power and increasing representation in media and policy are of utmost importance. There is a critical need for the public to better understand systemic racism and prejudice and to create avenues to justice and equity for all people, not just one particular population. Our organization and scholars are paving the way for change to happen, but it takes all of our efforts to make a sustainable difference."
