RACISM IN THE ARAB AMERICAN COMMUNITY, A CONVERSATION WITH PROF. FOUZI SLISLI.

 

The Arab American Community was shocked by the Holyland’s unfortunate racist postings episode. Some people called for an honest conversation about racism and anti-blackness in the Arab American Community… here is one with Fouzi Slisli, Professor of literature, teaching Race and racism!! “Not only as a CEO, but as a father, it is my duty and responsibility to ensure my family and Holy Land team members all demonstrate high integrity and moral compass guidelines,” Majdi Wadi wrote on the company’s Facebook page. “We will now work, harder than before, to better ourselves through education, volunteering, and open conversation and forums with all our community to ensure we leave a positive impact.” Lianne Wadi issued her own apology via Instagram.

NO LAND WITHOUT BREAD… !

How bread identifies the culture of immigrants, bread protects us, comfort us in the new world, bread who we are…flatbread, …is the best thing happened to America since the sliced bread…Bread has been offered as a sacrifice to God (and in previous times to the gods. Some religions believe that consecrated bread is God. In the Middle East, a hungry man will kiss a piece of bread given him as alms and an invocation is murmured before kneading the dough. In a large number of countries, people consider bread to be so precious that it is a sin to waste it. There are also many superstitions about what happens when a crumb drops out of your mouth (death comes in a week) or when a loaf is cut at both ends ( the devil will fly over your house)!
