"Celebrating Achievers, Inspiring Believers"Sunday, November 2, 2014

This week the streets around CAIR-Chicago’s office, have been painted yellow with the brightly t-shirted fans of Chicago Ideas Week (CIW).

In Bridgeview and Justice, Illinois, members of the Arab-American community have lived under surveillance for nearly twenty years. Assia Boundaoui grew up there.

Tuesday’s headline from the Chicago Sun-Times, "ISIS in Chicago", was not only sensational but inaccurate and misleading. A more accurate headline would have been: "A Chicagoan in ISIS?" (The added question mark underscoring that it is as of yet an allegation, not a finding).

Our office works with a number of youth, immigration, civil rights and interfaith organizations, and we have also presented on these issues with our partner organizations. Please contact our office if you have any questions, suggestions or would like us to come to your community to give a presentation on any of these topics, or meet to discuss any of these issues.
