A coalition of over 250 Muslim, Arab, and South Asian American leaders, academics, and activists formed in response to investigative reports that exposed Emgage USA / Emgage Action’s longstanding practices of normalizing relations with Zionist organizations and misrepresenting our communities.
United by our concerns, we initiated a campaign with an open letter urging community leaders to sever ties with Emgage and to halt all collaborations. To understand the breadth of our coalition and the specifics of our call to action, you can read the open letter here and see our names below.
