OUR SPEAKERS
PERFORMANCE BY MO AMER→
Mo is breaking barriers and creating greater visibility for Muslims in comedy and television. His new series, MO, premiered on Netflix on August 24th. Check out the trailer and watch the show. In the semi-autobiographical series, Mo plays a Palestinian refugee living in Houston, Texas with his family. Real and nuanced stories such as MO create windows into our rich and diverse experiences and cultures. This is a major moment for representation. Mo Amer continues to forge a path all his own.
About the Convention
Program
While America was established with the best of intentions, America’s promise for equality and justice has remained unfulfilled for many of our nation’s marginalized communities. Recent events, including the January 6th attack on The Capitol has revealed a large group of people who would rather burn down America than share it with all citizens equally.
Protecting marginalized communities and ensuring America stays true to its founding principles is one of the key issues of our lifetime. As American Muslims, this is “Our Sacred Honor.” With your support, we will continue working toward an America that is enriched by our vital contributions.
