IONA Embraces the Resiliency Projects
- Press Release:
The Islamic Organization of North America (IONA) is one among many organizations that embraced the Resiliency Project initiated by the InterFaith Leadership Council of Metropolitan Detroit (IFLC).
A group of concerned citizens, leaders of organizations and activists united to discuss the Resiliency Project. The large group of participants from every sector of society felt the need to unite against the anticipated rise in hate crimes as well as policies and other actions the new administration may implement that may be unjust and unconstitutional. The result is the following commitment statement.
Commenting on the project, Steve Mustapha Elturk, Imam and President of IONA stated, “We, at IONA, pledge to support the Resiliency Project with words and deeds.” When asked about collaborating with other organizations, he replied, “We have no choice but to come together and fight for our collective rights to freedom, equality and Justice. We, as people belonging to one human family, are obliged to stand together shoulder to shoulder in solidarity against all forms of hate, bigotry, prejudice and discrimination against any people, race or religion. This is our collective calling.”
We encourage you to engage and be part of the movement. You can do so by first endorsing the project by clicking here and when called you will join hands in action to combat the obstacle of discrimination.
We encourage our members and readers to be an active part of the movement. To endorse the statement please go to “Resiliency Project: Commitment Statement”[1] ,
