Sir Bob Geldof accepts his Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2018 MPAC Media Awards for his four decades of humanitarian work. Sir Bob Geldof launched “Band Aid” and “Live Aid,” raising over $210 million for Ethiopian famine relief, and millions more for Darfur and the victims of the Ebola crisis in West Africa. For his humanitarian work, Sir Bob Geldof has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, received an honorary knighthood by Queen Elizabeth II, and presented the “Freedom of the City of Dublin” award. Geldof returned that award in protest that his fellow awardee, Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi, has permitted the ethnic cleansing of Rohingya Muslims.

Trump Tweets
On November 30, 2017 By MPAC
Omar Noureldin, a political analyst and MPAC vice president & general counsel, joined CNN Newsroom to discuss President Trump's inflammatory tweets against Muslims by Britain First. Omar called the tweets “a deliberate tactic against Muslims, immigrants, African-Americans and the LGBT community... to fear monger” and as a result of this tactic against Muslims, our community experienced the single largest percentage increase in hate crimes of any religious or racial group from 2015 to 2016.
