The New Freedom Ride:
Towards Comprehensive Rights in the US


by Mohamed Ibrahim

This article introduces the IWFR event to Arabic-speaking immigrant communities in the United States through the website of Philadelphia’s Sudanese community in. It describes the strong outcomes of this mass mobilization of immigrant communities (documented and undocumented), and how coalition-building played a major role in this success. The article encourage other immigrant communities all over the world (especially in the Third World countries) to draw lessons from this historic event to help them in strategizing for their work. A complete English translation will be posted soon. Click here for the Arabic original.

Mohamed Ibrahim is the national base-building coordinator for AFSC’s Project Voice.
