We must stand together united in solidarity against the targeting, demonization, and vilification of any group of people.

My work has always been rooted in nonviolence, as espoused by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

When you talk about feminism, you're talking about the rights of all women and their families to live in dignity, peace, and security. It's about giving women access to health care and other basic rights.

I'm not going to hide my positions to make anyone else feel comfortable.

We will protect our constitutional right to boycott, divest, and sanctions in this country.

As one of the national organizers of the Women's March back in 2017, immediately after the Women's March, over 20,000 women across the country had registered to run for office - the largest numbers we've seen in probably our entire American history for women to run in this way.

There are plenty of Muslim women who are backbones of the community, but they aren't usually at the forefront. There just aren't a lot of me out there - women in hijabs, doing what I do.

I think the Women's March is actually reflective of this idea that you can create a big tent, but that doesn't mean the people inside of the tent are going to agree on everything. In fact, they might have very public fights about the things that they don't agree with.

I wish that more of the celebrities, who are multi-millionaires, probably, are able to say to themselves, 'Wow, my communities are under attack, and I need to give back to my community.'

I began my work as director of the Arab American Association of New York in the wake of the horrific attacks of 9/11.

It just doesn't make any sense for someone to say, 'Is there room for people who support the state of Israel and do not criticize it in the movement?' There can't be in feminism. You either stand up for the rights of all women, including Palestinians, or none. There's just no way around it.

You've probably seen that any visible Palestinian-American woman who is at the forefront of any social-justice movement is an immediate target of the right wing and right-wing Zionists. They will go to any extreme to criminalize us and to engage in alternative facts, to sew together a narrative that does not exist.

Being a Muslim American activist, I've been targeted by the right wing in a way that is very dangerous.

I haven't given up on my country. I believe in the potential. I believe in the Constitution.

I believe that this is the land of religious freedom and that that applies to Muslims. And if I have to make it apply to Muslims with the work that I do, I'm going to do that.

It's not enough just to elect people of color and women of color and progressives. We need to make sure that they have a work plan and that they are - continue to align with the communities that helped get them to where they're at.

When I stand up here, and I'm fighting for your rights and the rights of all people in these United States of America, I am a true patriot.

The Palestinian people were governing themselves before the creation of the State of Israel.

The progressive Left is sometimes very uncomfortable for staunch pro-Israel supporters, but what's very clear to me is that the progressive Left does not make Jews feel unsafe.

I'm the national co-chair for the Women's March on Washington.

My family is originally from Palestine, who came here to the United States, you know, from an occupied land to find a better life and find security and safety.

I'm impacted by my women's reproductive rights.

Rudy Giuliani is a known racist Islamophobe.

People see whatever the media first reports.

Since when can somebody tell me a time or a case where there has been a Syrian refugee in this country who has committed an act of terror?

We will continue to organize. You have seen consistent organizing since the Women's March on Washington in every corner of this country.

Can we be against anti-Semitism and understand that it's at the root of white supremacy? So you can't tell me to combat anti-Semitism if you're not ready to join me and tell me, 'Let's end white nationalism and white supremacy,' which is really the real threat on all Americans.

I get to say I was alive when the first Palestinian woman went to Congress. I was alive when the first Somali woman, in a hijab, who's black and Muslim - she's literally an immigrant, a refugee, black and Muslim and a woman and progressive.

We are rooted in Kingian nonviolence.

We are taught to attack the forces of evil and not those doing evil. That is what we are trained in.

One of the things that makes me horrified about a Trump administration is the continued use of code words like 'law and order.'

I think Bernie Sanders is a realist.

We, as Palestinian-Americans... will not change who we are to make anyone comfortable.

There is no country in this world that is immune to violating human rights.

BDS has been used as a tactic to raise awareness for Palestinian people, including women and their children.

My Pandora station is Boyz II Men.

Sharia is, for me, a personal basic set of guidelines that Muslims follow. It's about being respectful to elders. It's about praying five times a day. It's about etiquette that I have with members of my family. It's about inheritance, and it's about how we get married. Just the kind of basic things that anyone engages in in life.

Sometimes, it seems like the whole world has already set my life out for me.

Women need to find the courage to demand what they rightfully deserve. Women should be paid for the same work as their male counterparts, ask for promotions, and stand in their power in their place of employment, whether they are in a boardroom or in the movement.

I have a very resilient Brooklyn personality that allows me to stay thick-skinned and focused on my mission and goals.

As an activist, organizer, Palestinian, and a Muslim-American woman, I have faced many obstacles in the industry I work in. I often have to fight for my seat and representation for the communities I represent.

Donald Trump has no idea what a deal is. I mean, he's a man who has filed for bankruptcy many times, so he doesn't understand how to make any deals.

This idea of me being anti-Semitic is the most ludicrous of them all.

I believe in the liberation of the Palestinian people.

We would never ask any other faith community to stand up and condemn acts of violence committed by people within their groups. The fact that this is only directed at the Muslim community is something that I personally can't accept.

One of the areas that many of us, including the Women's March organizers, are focusing on is starting mass voter registration and voter engagement.

People have been skeptical of the Women's March on Washington. Our legitimacy only came from us proving to the rest of the world that we're capable.

I have been part of fights where we have been told, 'You will not win,' and we have won.

I was the head of fundraising for the Women's March, and I chose not to take money from corporations.

I am the most optimistic organizer in this country.
