CAIR-CA firmly stands against any kind of antisemi

CAIR-CA firmly stands against any kind of antisemitism at the local and national level, and we will continue to do so. We also stand against Islamophobic and anti-Palestinian groups. As articulated below, we do not believe that criticizing Zionism or human rights abuses committed by Israel are antisemitism.

As CAIR-SFBA Executive Director and a local civil rights leader, Zahra works hard to build strong ties with Jewish partners who are working to counter all forms of bigotry, including antisemitism and Islamophobia. We value the support and relationship that we have with the Jewish community and look forward to continuing to work together to help those in need.

CAIR-SD applauds the #Biden Administration's decision of a diplomatic boycott of the 2022 Winter #Olympics in Beijing. Far too long has China been committing atrocities, #genocide and crimes against humanity against the #Uyghur $Muslim population and other ethnic minorities in southwest $China. To echo the words of Rushan Abbas, Executive Director of Uyghur Human Rights Project, "We reject that there can be a symbol of peace when the camps and surveillance apparatuses there stand as monuments to atrocity. We ask other governments to join the boycott."

A snapshot of our recent work supporting Afghan families migrating to the United States:

When the recent Afghan crisis broke, CAIR-SD stepped up to help with evacuation efforts in bringing Afghan Americans back home. We also helped many Afghan community members file Humanitarian Parole applications to help their family members escape violence in Afghanistan.

Help us continue uniting families!
