Building Power in Politics

ADAPTIVE RESPONSE IN TIMES OF CRISIS

We launched a national billboard campaign that has been viewed by over 113+ million people, introducing 79 billboards across 26 cities to date to raise awareness of the ongoing human rights violations and call for a ceasefire in Gaza. We also led coalition efforts to push for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and delivery of humanitarian aid, and supported members of Congress in their opposition to the Administration’s response.

COUNTERing islamophobia

We launched our information initiative, Conversations on Capitol Hill - a speaker series, hosting congressional staff and thought leaders for discussions on U.S. National Security and Muslims, as well as India and the Oppression of Religious Minorities, and more. These conversations offer a necessary opportunity for sharing American Muslim perspectives on democracy, human rights, and policy with lawmakers and the general public. 

PUTTING YOUNG AMERICAN MUSLIMS IN POSITIONS TO SUCCEED

We invested in tomorrow's American Muslim leaders by training and housing 20 young leaders in Washington D.C. for ten weeks last summer through our Congressional Leadership Development Program (CLDP), empowering them to be the next generation of changemakers and leverage opportunities for future roles in D.C. or their local arena. Today, we have a group of over 90 CLDP alumni, many of whom are running for office, working in human rights advocacy, and representing our communities as public servants.

 

Promoting Progress in Perceptions

AMPLIFYING INCLUSION, REPRESENTATION, AND AUTHENTIC NARRATIVES

In order to fight misrepresentation of American Muslims in the entertainment industry, we're bringing authenticity to the table as the go-to for Hollywood to find Muslim talent, and the go-to for Muslims to get connected.

We consulted on film and TV shows on Netflix, ABC/Disney, Hulu and more, dealing with storylines depicting Islam and Muslims. Recent work includes ABC’s Grey's Anatomy and Hulu’s Jack Ryan.
