ADC Press Conference, Unveiling Second Phase of Civil Rights Center Project
Wednesday, 12 September 2007
The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) in Michigan is pleased to announce that on Wednesday, September 12, 2007, at 2:00 PM, it will host a special event and press conference unveiling the beginning of the second phase of its project to establish the first-ever American-Arab Center for Civil and Human Rights (ACCHR) in the United States.
ADC is honored to host Mr. Fahad Mohamad Kafoud, Deputy Chief of Mission of the State of Qatar at this unveiling. In addition to Mr. Kafoud, speakers will include ADC National President and Former Congresswoman Mary Rose Oakar, Wayne County Executive Robert Ficano and Dearborn Mayor Jack O’Reilly. The press conference will take place at the ACCHR project site on Chase Road, between Warren Ave. and Ford Road, (on the plot of land that is located to the direct right of the Al Berdouni Restaurant) in Dearborn.
In approximately two months, ADC Michigan plans to break ground on the ACCHR, which will, once complete, forever change the political landscape in the United States. This landmark Center will give Arab Americans a state-of-the-art facility and serve as an education and resource center on civil and human rights.
“This ADC Center is our contribution to the Arab American community in Michigan and across the United States,” states ADC Senior National Advisor and Regional Director Imad Hamad. “We have no doubt that with the support of the community and our friends, we will all share in the pride of such a landmark establishment.”
