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.

I was on the steering committee of the New York City Coalition on Muslim School Holidays.

I have my own support network of other organizers, activists, and attorneys.

We have our own agency; we should be judged by our own work.

It makes me sad that our kids are growing up in a country where they are American but, in a sense, have to prove it. They can't just be who they are like everyone else. Who they are is something suspicious, something scary, something misunderstood.

Americans - in general, we are very steadfast people: we know what we want; we get what we want.

My American side makes me fearless.

There's a conflation between the critique of the state of Israel and their policies with anti-Semitism, which I think is really flawed and inaccurate.

I have no problem with people challenging my views and my positions. I want to be clear that I'm not asking anybody to stop challenging me. But I will not accept being called an anti-Semite.

Wearing hijab made you know that I was Muslim.

When you're trying to inspire individuals across the country, you have to have a reflection that people can see themselves in.

If you have a march that's entirely white women or a march that maybe is entirely black women, it's going inspire those who look like them, which is fine. Our idea is that we want to inspire as diverse of a group of people as possible.

Do you care about climate justice? Are you about women's rights and women's reproductive rights? Do you care about civil liberties and the Voting Rights Act? There are so many opportunities for people to go back and be inspired and plug into their own community.

I'm not just a token Muslim.

Intersectional organizing is the new agenda. And if we're gonna lose, we're gonna lose together. If we win, we're gonna win together.

It is powerful to know what it feels like to be in community with people who will show up and fight for each other.

None of us live single-issue lives... That is why intersectionality is a strength, not a weakness.

We at the Women's March tried intersectionality, and we were the group that said we're going to do it right, and we're going to defy our women-of-color elders who told us, 'We did this with the white woman before, and it doesn't work.'
