“The primary objective of the ADC-RI Media Research Project is to research, track, and document anti-Arab and Islamophobic bias in the media, public discourse, and from public officials. This tracking project will serve as a resource tool which will highlight the prevalence of bias and bigotry. The project will expose xenophobia and hatred that target minorities in the U.S., particularly Arab and Muslim Americans.
The project will also celebrate achievements of Arabs and Muslims from around the world.”
The efforts are similar to the one launched in Michigan, another swing state, that garnered 13.2% of the Democratic primary vote, or more than 101,000 votes, and thereby two delegates to the Democratic National Convention in August.
